Mark Feldstein

Mark Feldstein (May 3, 1937 – October 2001), was an American artist and photographer best known for his large format photography of the streetlife and architecture of New York City.

Feldstein, whose parents were German Jews, often remarked that he just happened to be born in Milan, where his family were located during their emigration from Nazi Germany to the United States. He grew up in New York City and earned art degrees from Hunter College where he studied with Robert Motherwell.

Around 1970, after ten years as a painter, he turned to photography. He later joined the Hunter College faculty as a photography professor, teaching along with Roy DeCarava.

He created the scenic photography for the Broadway musical, The Tap Dance Kid, which ran from December 21, 1983 through August 11, 1985

gollark: I have to say that it's a bit of a weird choice by whoever chose it to use a proprietary charts thing (CanvasJS, it was mentioned on the site itself) instead of one of the many, many FOSS implementations.
gollark: Doesn't have to and didn't, even.
gollark: Good to know. I'll just fix the delay at 10 minutes or something for now though.
gollark: It's possible that my bot is limited to one post per 10 minutes in which case I'll have to... wait a bit?
