As Greece began to open up again after a harrowing civil war, McCabe's iconic black-and-white images from the 1950s and ‘60s helped create a new image of Athens in the eyes of the world. In this episode, he talks about how photographing the city helped launch his career, Greece’s so-called ‘Golden Era’ and why the best time to photograph the Acropolis isn’t what you might think. </span></p>
