Though Jack Robinson's professional photography career spanned only 17 years they were pivotal years in modern history. Jack was there to document in fine art photography the social changes that occurred in the 60's and early 70's as reflected by fashion, art, the written word, the stage and silver screen, and probably most important of all, the music. Jack photographed virtually every musician that we think of when we think Woodstock and the Summer of Love. Jack did album covers and fashion shoots. He photographed the Nixon White House, then Dennis Hopper of "Easy Rider", the unbridled decadence of the 60's in New York and unequaled elegance of Jacqueline Kennedy in full formal regalia. Jack captured what is arguably the absolute zenith of modern fashion as given us by Pucci, Cardin, St. Laurent, Blass and the like. But he also showed us the casual look that was to become and sometimes what was not to become (electric clothes by Diana Dew). His gift as a photographer established him as Diana Vreeland’s favorite photographer. From the "Beat Generation", as an insider and a participant, Jack Robinson captured on film what the world will remember for generations, as the 60's.
