Lawrence Schiller
The themes of celebrity and scandal anchor much of Lawrence Schiller’s diverse body of work, which spans from photography and nonfiction writing to directing Oscar-winning films including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) and The Man Who Skied Down Everest (1972). Schiller achieved early success as a photojournalist, publishing photographs of movie stars, athletes, and politicians in magazines and newspapers worldwide. Schiller’s most iconic images capture a nude Marilyn Monroe filming a pool scene for the motion picture Something’s Got to Give, just a few months before her death in 1962. In addition to his memoir Marilyn & Me (2012), Schiller has published eleven books over the course of his career, many with his lifelong collaborator Norman Mailer.

- Photograph of Baptism in the Street by Frank Stewart 'God's Trombones'Located in White Plains, NY'God's Trombones' by American photographer Frank Stewart, 2009. Printed later. Pigment print, 20 x 30 inches. This photograph features Harlem during the baptism in the street, an annual occurence in East Harlem. For the past three decades, Stewart has served as senior staff photographer at Jazz at Lincoln Center, where Marsalis leads the orchestra and serves as artistic director. His jazz photographs highlight an intimate association with their subjects, that enables him to portray situations off-stage that otherwise would remain unknown to most of us. He works with film and digitally, using no artificial illumination other than stage lighting, and the prints employ subtle tones of black, grey, and white. Viewers are able to connect with the emotional range of the musicians and vocalists depicted and to grasp the deeply understood parallels between Stewart's vivid photographic forms and spaces, and the dramatic sounds and silences of jazz music. Frank Stewart initiated his career in jazz photography traveling with Ahmad Jamal and his group shortly after receiving a degree in photography from The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art (1975). Stewart's focus on jazz was solidified from 1989-92 when he accompanied the Wynton Marsalis Septet. In the intervening years, Stewart had worked independently in clubs and at jazz events primarily in New York and Chicago. In 1992, he became the lead photographer for Jazz at Lincoln Center, traveling the globe with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Born 1949 in Nashville, Tenn., Stewart was raised in Memphis and Chicago and has spent his entire career based in New York. His practice is centered around African American culture and the black experience throughout the diaspora. His roots in the segregated South, life-long love of music, and studies with Roy...Category
