Christopher Makos - New York city

Christopher Makos studied architecture and worked as an apprentice with the artist, Man Ray,
in Paris. Since the early 1970's, he has developed a unique style of boldly graphic photojournalism.
He is the author of two books: White Trash (1977) and Warhol: A Personal Photographic Memoir (1988).
His works have appeared in magazines such as Rolling Stone and Esquire. He served as a
contributing photographer to Warhol's Interview magazine and was a close friend to Andy Warhol. Presently,
Makos maintains an active photography studio in Manhattan, hosts an interview show, Makostyle, for
television in New York, and exhibits his photographs, prints, and paintings widely throughout the
United States and Europe.
