Walker Evans also produced gelatin silver documentary photographs of American agricultural laborers and rural poverty during the Depression era, sharing Lange's commitment to unflinching social realism and dignified portrayals of working class subjects.

Gordon Parks created powerful black and white documentary photographs examining American social conditions, labor, and racial inequality with the same humanistic empathy and formal precision found in Lange's portraits of marginalized workers.

Russell Lee worked as a Farm Security Administration photographer documenting agricultural laborers and migrant communities across the American Southwest, producing gelatin silver prints that closely parallel Lange's subject matter, geographic focus, and documentary approach.
