Arnold Newman, is a great photographer. I love his quote “a portrait is a form of a biography. Its purpose is to inform now and to record for history”

Great to see. I think Newman's portraits are timeless because of their minimalist nature: There is little else in his photos to identify time, including what the sitter is wearing

Ted, Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences and your art of photography thoughts with me. I can finally be at lectures that I truly love and see the thought behind the photos. We are so overwhelmed with techniques and equipment these days that the art gets forgotten. Your channel is what I have been craving for a long time and the type information and thoughts you have been sharing are quenching my thirst. I appreciate your efforts and thank you for hours of enjoyment through your thoughts. Looking forward to your episodes.

2:23 I totally agree the B Flat image is brilliant, hard to believe that it was rejected by Harper's Bazaar kind of shows you that we was way ahead of his time.

Agreed! I found it odd that it was not mentioned that the way Stravinsky is posed is a replication on the entire image. His face= the grey rectangle. His hand, wrist and exposed shirt = white wall meeting the grey. His bent arm and elbow= the open piano. Anyone else see this?

I know I am a day late and a dollar short with commenting on this post but Newman is my top influence. I met him at a PPA convention and he was there signing copies of the book you are showcasing. I was nervous to even approach him that day but I got the courage and walked up when no one was around. I was floored by his kindness and interest in me. I was coming off a personal tragedy and somehow the conversation turned to it. After speaking with him what felt like an hour (probably 10 minutes) he signed my book and I thanked him and floated away. Later, n my hotel room, I opened up the book to view his signature and saw he had written a very personalized note referencing the personal tragedy we had discussed. You could offer me $5 million for my signed copy of his book and I would laugh you out of the room. He made a difference.

Hi Ted, I'm a latecomer to your channel but I have to say I'm really enjoying what your creating here. I was beginning to despair of KZitem for insights into the great photographers and the movements that have shaped the photographic world, and then I stumbled across your excellent series. I knew Newman from the Krupp portrait (a studied portrait-of-evil which makes a worthy companion to Eisenstaedt's Goebbel's snatched candid-of-evil moment) and his Stravinsky portrait, but little of his other work. I'm now placing an order on the book. I especially enjoy how you deliver your talks straight up with no fancy digressions, but still allow your enthusiasm to shine through. It's to the point and very compelling. Oh, one thing though - you might want to consider a cushion or book holder to angle your photo-books - can't be comfortable on the hand forever tilting them against the glare!

Amazing video, one that I'll continue to come back and reference whenver I need a guide. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and giving us a breakdown of Arnold Newman's photography techniques. A few months ago I was introduced to his work but never took the time to really deep dive to study and appreciate. It wasn't until last week when I finally checked out the book above from my local library that I truly sat in awe, page after page, admiring the different portriats Newman took. I'm glad I sat down and watched your video today because after you said Newman's photography was environmental portraiture everything clicked, very much an ah-ha moment for me. Thank you so much for this.

That's a really great book, I love his photos. I learned myself not to crop in post or at least keep it to minimum when I was using 20D. If I were too liberal, there wouldn't be much of a photo left for printing. But it must have been great to have so much of the negative that you can have the second take on the composition.

Ansel's printing was "like a printing press" ? ? ? ? . . . Just because a photographer doesn't make collages, as Newman did, doesn't mean that his (or her) traditionally made silver-gelatin prints -even several copies of the same negative-- don't vary, what with all the burning, dodging and real -if tiny- differences in developing time, temperature and chemical strenth . It's just a question of degree, and I think you know that. Giving the benefit of the doubt, perhaps it was just a slightly clumsy way of expressing a thought which applies WAY more to digital prints! Other than that, thanks for an interesting video.
