There was some good work in there, but I am most impressed by the volume and breadth of what she shot - with so much left to be developed!
I admire and can identify with her being personally reserved but rather inquisitive once behind the camera.
Really intrigued to see what else comes out of that project.

Gopher, I wouldn't say there is no processing. If you look in the video, you can see they are scanning the negitives onto a computer. On the computer it does look like they are doing a little post processing. The one part they are either setting levels, brightening, or setting white and black points for processing.
Not to take anything away from her photos, brightness and contrast post processing in B&W has been done for decades. They aren't doing anything new to them that wouldn't have been done when she was taking these great images.

Darwin was right
Got that. I does look like the original "eyeball" composition and subject matter are all top rate. It looks like a lot of her shots were single opportunities. I guess being a nanny and having to opportunity to wander the city while at work gave her good access to great subject matter. I would love to be able to see more than the very few shots from the video.

Those are indeed minor alterations. Most photographs could use more contrast anyway.
Ah.
I meant to search for more of her work, but forgot.
