USA
B. 1930 – 2020
EnquirePaul Fusco launched his career as a photographer with the U.S. Army Signal Corps in Korea and then studied photojournalism at Ohio University. He soon joined Look magazine, where he documented urgent social issues across the U.S. and abroad, from destitute miners and Latino communities to life behind the Iron Curtain. After Look closed, he entered Magnum Photos in 1973 and began publishing widely in Time, LIFE, and The New York Times Magazine. His most acclaimed project captured the mourners lining the tracks during Robert F. Kennedy’s funeral train. Today, many prestigious institutions collect Fusco’s work, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum (Washington D.C.), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the ICP (New York).
