Jamie Livingston - Photos of the Day
Loading...
Uploaded by JamieLivingstonPOTD on May 24, 2008
Jamie Livingston (25 October 1956-25 October 1997) was a New York-based photographer, film-maker and circus performer who from March 31, 1979 through to the day of his death on October 25, 1997 took a Polaroid photograph every day.
Livingston's 'Polaroid a Day' photographic diary started at Bertelsmann Campus Center at Bard College and though some photos have gone missing from the collection, 6,697 Polaroids remain. The collection, dated in sequence, has been organized by his friends Hugh Crawford and Betsy Reid into an exhibit at Bard College called "JAMIE LIVINGSTON. PHOTO OF THE DAY: 1979-1997", which opened in 2007.

Seeing as there were 6000+ photos, it was very difficult to narrow them down to the length of a short video. I didn't know Jamie, so I really have no idea who any of the people are in these photos. I tried to give a decent representation of what is in this photo collection, and I hope you enjoy it.

I never knew you James, but over the last week, I've been looking at your photos and printing out some of my favourites. You've inspired me to take on this project and I'm 7 days into what I hope to be a lifelong project. Thank you for taking such incredible photos - each one precious and lasting - like you.
