Stanley Greene, the involved photographer

The American photographer Stanley Greene considered life as a play where everybody are performers. He involves himself deeply in lost causes but he didn't hesitate to keep a kind of mystery about himself. Born in a New - York City middle class family he feels the injustice when his father was black listed by the McCarthy committee for his involvement inside the Actor Screen Guild. Stanley Greene militates with the hippies against the Vietnam war and becomes after member of the Black Panther Party. In 1971 he meets Eugene Smith who will support him when he wanted to be a professional photographer. Stanley Greene will follow studies at the San Francisco Art Institute and at the New - York Visual Art. During the 1970's and the 1980's he works as fashion photographer but let this activity down after the death of one of his friends by AIDS in 1989. Greene was in Berlin when the wall falls down and also among the fighters in Chechnya war. Five times World Press awarded he has created the Noor Agency.
