Melvin Sokolsky
Melvin Sokolsky (American, born 1933) was raised in New York City where he started his distinguished career as a photographer. At the age of 21 he joined the staff of Harper’s Bazaar. In the 1960s he worked as a major contributor to four prestigious magazines: Esquire, McCall’s Newsweek, and Show.
His work is characterized by his sense of fantasy and invention. Surrealism is an influence in his plays with proportion and reality.
Among the museums that have exhibited his work are The Museum of Modern Art and the Victoria & Albert Museum, where he was included in "Shots of Style", a retrospective of the world's major fashion photographers.
