Marvin E. Newman | New York Times Obituary

Marvin Newman, a renowned photographer who brought a quirky, artistic eye to capturing shadows on a Chicago main street; people in front of shuttered storefronts on Coney Island; and athletes in competition, including the Pittsburgh Pirate Bill Mazeroski smashing the 1960 World Series-winning home run, died on Sept. 13 at his home in Jersey City, N.J. He was 95.

 

Mr. Newman — whose pictures were published in magazines like Sports Illustrated, Life, Look, Smithsonian, Esquire and Newsweek — was adept in many ways, as a street photographer, a portraitist, an expert at capturing sports action and a creator of inventive images.
