Publishing order not clear
There are a few problems here. The article mentions his work with SNCC, and then mentions his book of that material which was published about 30 yrs later. The text says that Lyon then published his own books, which is confusing, because it implies that he self-published his early material, which is not the case. I think there should be a selected books section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vtphotog (talk • contribs) 21:03, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Collections
I think there should be a "Collections" section of this page listing the important repositories of Lyon's work. This is a common section seen on other artist and photographers pages. A PDF from Lyon's gallery that contains a list of collections can be found here: https://www.houkgallery.com/attachment/en/578f8a1384184e770f8b4568/TextTwoColumnsWithFile/578f8a1d84184e770f8b4aa1. I would suggest listing all institutions that hold at least 100 prints of Lyons work (thus constituting an "important repository"). Sdylanewing (talk) 14:57, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
 * You are welcome to begin such a section. -Lopifalko (talk) 15:28, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

John Lewis speaks of/to Lyon
This quotation is from the Whitney's promotion of the video that is in the  External Link section of the article. I wonder, is there a place for this encomium in the article itself?
 * During the conversation, Lewis underscored the importance of Lyon’s photographs in the outcome of the American civil rights movement: “You made a major contribution to inspire so many people. Through your books, your films, and the beautiful photographs you made it plain. You made it real. And because these photographs were shared with people all around America and all around the world, they were moved. They were inspired to do something. To say something. To move their feet and a make a little noise. It was a great thing for an artist to do.”
