John F. Hillelson est décédé le 13 février 2012. C’est un grand monsieur du photojournalisme du XXème siècle qui nous a quittés. «John Hillelson Agency» a été l’agent à Londres de l’agence Magnum, mais également de Sygma, de Viva etc. Il a côtoyé et vendu le travail de photographes tels qu’Henri Cartier-Bresson, Erwitt, Cole etc. Il faudrait un bottin pour les citer tous.
John F. Hillelson has died. A great figure of 20th century photojournalism has left us. The “John Hillelson Agency” represented Magnum in London, but also Sygma and Viva. He collaborated with and sold the work of photographers including Henri Cartier-Bresson, Erwitt, Cole etc. I would need a book to name them all. On Monday February 13, John F Hillelson succumbed to complications from heart surgery wrote his son James Fox who asked that the photographic community be informed.
