Paul Katz’s energy crackles through his photos like a lightning bolt. Now in his 70s, he has spent six decades shooting dynamic and colorful combat scenes, portraits, and still lifes. Once an Army photo officer, he also worked in the White House Photo Office during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. He started his own studio in New York in 1978, where he shot numerous book covers and magazine illustrations. Now in his 70s and as adamant about his camerawork as ever, Katz explains, “I’m an artist. And artists don’t retire.”
