Ralph Toporoff

Born: 25 March 1941
New York City

Photo-journalist/filmmaker, Ralph Toporoff, began his career in the sixties, with international magazines including Look, Paris Match, Gente and Der Spiegel.
He then went on to a forty year career as a Cinematographer and Motion Picture Director. The most exciting new venture for him has been a return to still photography. Using his own archives, he is reimagining his oeuvre in a series of photomurals and single images fusing the essence of the period with a uniquely contemporary texture.
