Arnold Genthe was born in Berlin, Germany, in 1869. After graduating from the University of Berlin, Genthe moved to San Francisco in 1895. There, he established himself as a portrait photographer of celebrities. He also did a series of Chinatown genre — which was published as Old Chinatown — and scenes of the destruction caused by the 1906 earthquake. In 1911, Genthe moved to NYC, where he was a pioneer in dance photography, producing Book of the Dance (1916) and Isadora Duncan (1929). He penned his memoir, called As I Remember, before his death in New Milford, Connecticut, in 1942. Genthe exhibited at the California Camera Club, 1899, 1901 (gold medal); Society of Independent Artists, 1917; Paris, 1928 (gold medal); Staten Island Museum, New York, 1975; in the New York Historical Society; and the Oakland Museum.
