The iconic sock monkey - a stuffed toy made from rocks - has adorned American nurseries for generations. Each is handmade and reflects the ingenuity of an anonymous thrifty homemaker. From common threads and yarns, buttons and beads, every sock monkey realizes its own endearing characteristics. Intrigued by the range of expression of these marvelous creatures, Ron Warren began a collection of sock monkeys in 1985 that now includes over 2,000 examples.
In these portraits, photographes Arne Svenson has captured the personality behind a number of these colorful, lovable, buttoneyed grinning faces.
