Arnold Newman: At WorkStock informationGeneral Fields
Special Fields
DescriptionA driven perfectionist with inexhaustible curiosity about people, Arnold Newman was one of the twentieth century's greatest and most prolific photographers. In a career that spanned nearly seven decades and produced many iconic works, Newman became renowned for making "pictures of people" (he objected to the term "portraits") in the places where they worked and lived-the spaces that were most expressive of their inner lives. Refusing the label of "art photographer," Newman also accepted magazine and advertising commissions and executed them to the same exacting standards that characterized all of his work. He spent countless hours training aspiring photographers, sharing his own vast experience, but allowing them the freedom to experiment and discover.
