1942 Born in Edinburgh (UK)
Albert Watson is a renowned photographer who made photographs for familiar magazines such as Vogue, The Face, Rolling Stone and Newsweek. He is, moreover, the favourite photographer of Mick Jagger, Uma Thurman and Jack Nicholson. In addition he has made advertising films, video clips and documentaries.
In the 1960s Watson studied graphic design and film at the Royal College of Art. He moved to New York in 1976 and opened his own studio there. He has won various prizes, including a Grammy Award in 1975 for the best design for an LP cover, and an ANDY Award in 1983 as the best advertising photographer of the year.
His crowning achievement is his unprecedented 250 cover images for Vogue magazine, the ultimate barometer of success for a fashion photographer.
