Biografija umetnika
Early Life and Education
- Born: John Felix Vachon was born on May 19, 1914, in St. Paul, Minnesota.
- Family Background: He was the son of Ann Marie (O'Hara) and Harry Parnell Vachon.
- Education: Vachon graduated from Cretin High School (now Cretin-Derham Hall High School). He then earned a bachelor’s degree in 1934 from the University of St. Thomas, formerly known as the College of St. Thomas, and continued his studies at the Catholic University of America in Washington D.C. between 1935 and 1936.
Career with the Farm Security Administration (FSA)
- Early Role: In 1937, Vachon began his career at the Farm Security Administration as an assistant messenger. He initially had no intention of becoming a photographer.
- Transition to Photography: As he took on responsibilities maintaining the FSA photographic file, his interest in photography grew. With encouragement from Ben Shahn and guidance from Walker Evans and Arthur Rothstein, he began taking photographs himself.
- Documentary Work: Vachon became a member of the regular FSA photographic staff, documenting the conditions of rural poverty during the Great Depression. He traveled extensively, capturing poignant scenes in the Plains states, including Nebraska and Omaha.
- Photographic Style: His work was characterized by its candid and unembellished portrayal of people and places, avoiding artificial beautification often found in commercial photography.
Post-War Career and Diverse Assignments
- Office of War Information & Standard Oil: During World War II, Vachon worked as a photographer for the Office of War Information (1942-1943) and then for Standard Oil Company of New Jersey (1943-1944).
- Photo League Involvement: After serving in the U.S. Army in 1945, he joined the Photo League, contributing book reviews to *Photo Notes* and participating in exhibitions.
- International Assignments: Between 1945 and 1947, Vachon photographed New Jersey and Venezuela for Standard Oil, and Poland for the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration.
- Magazine Work: He became a staff photographer for *Life* magazine (1947-1949) and then worked at *Look* magazine for over twenty-five years beginning in 1947. During his time with these magazines, he covered a wide range of subjects.
- Notable Assignments: In 1953, Vachon took the first photographs of Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio near Banff, Canada.
Later Life and Legacy
- Freelance Work & Guggenheim Fellowship: After *Look* magazine closed in 1971, Vachon became a freelance photographer. In 1973, he received a Guggenheim fellowship.
