Great Black & White Photographers { Part II }
Biography of André Kertész
André Kertész [ birth name of Kertész Andor ] was born on July 2nd of 1894 in Hungary, and later in life, died on September 28th of 1985. However, throughout his life, he did many things to positively bring out the beauty of the world. He earned many awards for his photography and also for the books that he had written throughout his career in photography. In total, he took photographs and wrote 8 books over his lifetime. His education was given at the Academy of Commerce and he started his photography career in magazines and such almost as soon as he started.
As a Jewish Photographer during this time period, I'm surprised he was able to get most of these pictures, while also bringing his wife [ Elizabeth Saly ] with him on his amazing journey through their shared life. There are also many books about his life story that can be found all over the world, and landmarks of places he took pictures in Europe that are an interesting tourist attraction.
