Biography
film director
Robert Frank
Robert Frank was born in 1924 to a Jewish family in Zurich. Following the outbreak of WWII, he took refuge in Switzerland, where he began working as a photographer. In 1947 he moved to New York and soon began working as a photographer for magazines like "Harper's Bazaar," "McCall's" and the "New York Times." After winning a Guggenheim scholarship in 1955, Frank began compiling a photographic documentary of American culture. The result is the collection called The Americans, which was published in 1958. He later dedicated himself to cinema, taking on the cause of avant-garde filmmaking.
