Milton Greene began his photography career at the age of 14, apprenticing under renowned photojournalist Elliot Elisofen and fashion photographer Louise Dahl-Wolfe. By 23 his work had been featured in major publications like Life, Harper’s Bazaar, and Vogue. Greene, along with peers like Richard Avedon, helped shift the public’s perception of fashion photography towards an association with fine art. Though known for high-fashion photography, his portraits of famous figures such as Frank Sinatra, Grace Kelly, and Marilyn Monroe remain in high regard. Greene has won awards from the American Institute of Graphic Arts, the Art Directors Club of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Detroit. Greene’s work has been exhibited in such places as the International Center of Photography in New York, Art Institute of Chicago, and Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C.
