John Gutmann
(From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia)
John Gutmann (1905-1998) was a
German-born American photographer and painter.
After fleeing Nazi Germany for the United States, Gutmann acquired a job
as a photographer for various German magazines. Gutmann quickly took an
interest in the American way of life and sought to capture it through the
lense of his camera. He especially took an interest in the Jazz music
scene. Gutmann is recognized for his unique "worm's-eye view" camera
angle. He enjoyed taking photos of ordinary things and making them seem
special.
