Carolyn Djanogly is a celebrated portrait photographer whose work has documented many of the leading figures of our time with striking clarity and formal gravitas. Turning her lens to prominent politicians, leading actors, musicians and artists, as well as corporate changemakers and social innovators, Djanogly’s subjects form a cross-section of history in formation.
Djanogly was born in 1965. Following an earlier career as a BBC researcher and Granada TV documentary director, Djanogly achieved widespread critical acclaim for her first book of photography, Centurions, published in 1999 by Andre Deutsch.
Some twenty-two images from this publication, which depicted some of the most significant figures of twentieth century Britain, were acquired by the National Portrait Gallery, London. Djanogly’s photography has appeared in a wide range of international publications, such as Vanity Fair, The Times, Forbes and Der Spiegel, and she has exhibited widely throughout the UK.
