I stand corrected (and it's not bad netiquette). I have two of his books. You'd think I'd remember how to spell his name.<<< Actually, he himself spelled his name "Winograd," as did his parents. "Winogrand" got started more or less adventitiously--and not by him--possibly as a sort of friendly vamp on the theme of "grand"-ness. He wasn't behind it himself.
