<P>ERICH HARTMANN</P>
<P>1922-1999</P>
<P> </P>
<P>Erich Hartmann, the wonderful man whose photograph of John Franklin
Bardin adorns this website, passed away in 1999.</P>
<P>His friend, Burt Glinn, wrote of him, "He was the first to bring
the techniques of photojournalism to corporate photography. By his example
he opened an entire new field for photographers who up until then had worked
mainly for magazines. He said, "I want to photograph objects in ways
they have never seen before." His work ranged from his fascination
with science and industry to the deep humanity of his coverage of the arts
and his pictures of the Nazi death camps fifty years after the Holocaust.
He has had one-man shows in New York, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Tokyo, and
many major German cities. At the time of his death he had completed work
on a book about Italy.</P>
<P>The following is from the Afterword of Erich Hartmann's 1995 book, "In
the Camps" (W.W. Norton & Company):</P>
<P>"If I have learned any lesson from having been in the remains of
the camps, it is that thinking or living for oneself alone has become an
unaffordable luxury. Except perhaps in dreams, life no longer takes place
on a solitary plane. It is now irrevocably complex, and we, whoever we are,
have become intertwined one with the other, whether we like it or not. Acting
on that belief may be a more effective tribute to the memory of the dead
than mourning alone or vowing that it shall not happen again. And it may
also be the most promising way of doing away with the concentration camps.
I am not an optimist, but I believe that if we decide that we must link
our lives inextricably - that "me" and "them" must be
replaced by "us" - we may manage to make a life in which gas chambers
will not be used again anywhere and a future in which children, including
my granddaughters, will not know what they are."</P>
