2. DENNIS STOCK!
When and where was he born? And Where does he work?
Stock was born in New York City. His father was Swiss and his mother was English. Stock served in the Untied States
Army from 1947 to 1951. Following his discharge, he apprenticed under photographer Gjon Mili. In 1951, he won a first
prize in a Life magazine competition for young photographers. That same year, he became an associate member of the
photography agency Magnum. He became a full partner-member in 1954. 1955, Stock met the actor James Dean and
undertook a series of photos of the young star in Hollywood, Dean's hometown in Indiana and in New York City. He took
a photograph of Dean in New York's Times Square in 1955 (the year Dean died) that became an iconic image of the young
star. It appeared later in numerous galleries and on postcards and posters and was one of the most reproduced photographs
of the post-war period. In 1968, Stock left Magnum to start his own film company, Visual Objectives Inc., and made several
documentaries, but he returned to the agency a year later, as vice president for new media and film. In the mid-1970s, he
traveled to Japan and the Far East, and also produced numerous features series, such as photographs of contrasting regions,
like Hawaii and Alaska.[4] In the 1970s and 1980s he focused on color photography of nature and landscape, and returned
to his urban roots in the 1990s focusing on architecture and modernism.
