“Howard Schatz is so versatile that this volume at times seems of a dozen photographers, Weegee, Avedon, Penn, Beaton, Newton, and Goude, among them. He has affection for his subjects – athletes, dancers, models, actors – and it shows in every remarkable image.   Sometimes funny, often dramatic, his is a master both of the quiet revealing portrait and the explosive surprise.”

 

Many know of his photography for capturing flawless subjects underwater. Howard is also known for his photographs of celebrities such as Mohamed Ali, Edie Falco, Stephon Marbury, Chevy Chase, Annika Sorenstam and Brooke Shields to name a few.  Schatz has photographed more than 100 actors of theater, television and movies with a unique one-on-one improvisation.
