Biography

Harold Feinstein was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1931. At the age of 15 he began photographing and by 19 he was considered a young prodigy in the field, having his work purchased by Edward Steichen for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA)[2] His career has spanned the greater part of the twentieth century, from his most notable work documenting Coney Island[3], New York, to his more recent color photographs of flowers and seashells.[4] His portfolios cover an expansive range of subject matters beyond these, including his photo essays from the Korean War, documentary street work, nudes, landscapes, and still life.[5]

In his early years, Feinstein collaborated closely with W. Eugene Smith, for whom he did the extensive layout of Smith's famous "Pittsburgh Essay." Smith said of Feinstein's work, "He is one of the very few photographers I have known, or have been influenced by, with the ability to reveal the familiar to me in a beautifully new, in a strong and honest way."[6]
