Directed by Dr. Barbara McNulty, this documentary film was inspired by the images on view in the current Frick exhibition "Children’s Hospital 1951: Photographs By Esther Bubley".

Esther Bubley (1921-1998) was an American photographer who specialized in expressive photos of ordinary people in everyday lives. The original Children's Hospital was built in the 1890s and was replaced earlier this year with a new, state-of-the-art facility.
