Elliott Erwitt was born in Paris in 1928 into a family of Jewish origin. He spent his childhood between France, Italy and America, Paris, Los Angeles, New York, places which regularly appear in his photographs. He began to take photographs at a very early age, and soon his Laica became his faithful companion. Erwitt makes use of images to communicate through an ironic, simple, essential language. He has been a member of the famous Magnum agency since 1953, though he is best known for his humorous or touching images, capable of grasping spontaneous moments from the flow of experience, Erwitt is also a highly effective journalist and, when the occasion demands, rises to interpret tragedy.
