Tom Palumbo–From Bazaar to Vogue

Preview

The American photographer and stage director Tom Palumbo (1921-2008) is best known for his fashion and celebrity photographs from the 1950s and 60s.

It all began in 1953, when the photographer Edward Steichen, the newly appointed director of photography at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, noticed one of Palumbo’s photos (“Stables Athens, Georgia” pictured above) and sent it and a few others to Alexey Brodovitch, the artistic director of the magazine Harper’s Bazaar, where Palumbo went on to work from 1953 to 1959, then for Vogue from 1959 to 1962. Palumbo was also a lifetime member of the Actors Studio.
