Milton Greene

Milton Greene was born in New York in 1922. He apprenticed to photojournalist, Elliot Elisofen, and with fashion photographer Louise Dahl-Wolfe. Greene is credited for bringing fashion photography into the realm of fine art along with other eminent photographers such as Richard Avedon, Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, and Norman Parkinson. The range of Milton Greene´s subjects include such people as Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich, Andy Warhol and Norman Mailer. But it was his unique friendship, business relationship with Marilyn Monroe for which he is most remembered. Before marrying Arthur Miller, Monroe lived with Milton and his family in their Connecticut farmhouse. It was during their ten years together that Greene captured some of the most beautiful photographs ever taken of Marilyn Monroe, such as the famous "Black" sitting. Greene’s photography won him many national and international honors, medals and awards; among them the American Institute of Graphic Arts and the Art Director´s Club of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Detroit. One of his last awards was from the Art Director´s Club of New York for his work in Harper´s Bazaar. Greene died in 1985.
