About Tom Zimberoff

I began with a clarinet, not a camera, studying orchestral music at the University of Southern California. Then photography grabbed me by the eyeballs and wouldn’t let go. I came of age when the photojournalists’ credo was “f/8 and be there.” To be there was to bear witness. I apprenticed in the crucible of magazine assignments when print still ruled the media. Shooting mostly for TIME—and affiliated with the Sygma Photo Agency—I covered breaking stories and people in the news worldwide. I shot commercial jobs, too.
