Gordon Parks
World-renowned photojournalist, fashion photographer, artist, fine art photographer, writer, film director,
poet, novelist, musician, and composer—today, Gordon Parks is widely recognized as one of the
greatest multi-talented men of the twentieth century. Through everything, Parks retained his modesty
and his indelible work ethic. “There’s really no genius attached to what I’ve done in my life,” he said.
“All I’ve really done is try to survive, more than anything else.”
