Tiny
When Streetwise was nominated for a 1984 Academy Award for documentary, Tiny attended the Oscar ceremony with Bell and Mark. Despite Tiny's celebrity, however, her life did not radically change track. Mark has returned to Seattle to photograph Tiny many times since 1983, and photographs of Tiny have appeared in Mark's later books, which reveal that in the years after the Streetwise projects, Tiny continued her prostitution, became a drug addict, became obese, and gave birth to nine children fathered by several different men. In the mid-2000s, however, Mark and Bell's 23-minute film, Erin, revealed that Tiny had cleaned up and settled down with a husband and her minor children.

—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

I need my little addiction to you.
I need that tiny voice who,
even as I rise from the sea,
all woman, all there,
says kill me, kill me.”
