Newman originally attended the University of Miami, but was forced
to leave school due to finances. When he was twenty he began working
in a portrait studio in Philadelphia. It was there that he received
his basic training in photography. By 1939 he was travelling for the
photo studio to Baltimore, Allentown and New York. During his travels
he began making images and experimenting with portraits of poor black
workers and constructions created in vacant lots. In 1941 he had his
first exhibition with Ben Rose at the A-D Gallery. From 1942 to 1945
he operated a studio in Miami Beach and had his first one-man show
at the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1945. He was an active magazine
photographer by 1947 and regularly contributed to Life, Horizon, Holiday,
Look, Esquire, Fortune, Collier's, Newsweek, Town and Country and
The Saturday Evening Post. His work has been featured in several books
and magazine articles and he has received many awards and honors.
