Description

Constantine Manos was born in 1934 in South Carolina to Greek immigrant parents. His photographic career began when he was 13, in the school camera club, and within a few years he was a professional photographer. At the age of 19, he was hired as the official photographer of the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Tanglewood. During this time, he attended the University of South Carolina, graduating in 1955 with a BA in English Literature. After military service, he moved to New York, where he worked for Esquire, Life and Look. His book Portrait of a Symphony, on the Boston Symphony Orchestra, was published in 1961. For the next three years, he lived in Greece, producing work that resulted in A Greek Portfolio, first published in 1972 and an award winner at Arles and at the Leipzig Book Fair. In 1963, Manos joined Magnum Photos and became a full member two years later.
