About
Why this artist matters now
Don Hogan Charles is an American photographer who documented African American life and civil rights activism from the 1960s onward, working primarily for The New York Times. His black-and-white photographs capture street scenes, protests, and portraits with unflinching directness, establishing a visual record of the postwar period. Charles brought journalistic rigor and compositional precision to assignments that mainstream media often overlooked or marginalized.
