About Judy Glickman Lauder
Judy Glickman Lauder is internationally recognized as an acclaimed photographer, philanthropist, and author known for her impactful contributions to the fields of photography and history. Her life’s work, whether through her art, her generosity, or her collecting, is defined by a deep appreciation for life and all its intricacies. This fascination with humanity, and the nuances and complexities therein, encompasses all her creative and spiritual endeavors, and has led her across the world in the pursuit of connecting people to one another. Glickman Lauder has made indelible contributions to the field of photography.
Glickman Lauder’s earlier years involved her posing for her father, Irving Bennett Ellis, who captured her growth from infancy to adulthood, resulting in the iconic “Turn Around” television commercial for Kodak during the 1960s. The experience sparked her own lifelong love of the medium. In the 1970s, Glickman Lauder acquired her first professional camera and took a special interest in photographing cityscapes and traveling to Europe to document sites related to the Holocaust—images that are today held by institutions such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the J. Paul Getty Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. With a deep passion for creating powerful stories through the lens of her camera, Lauder’s work often explores themes related to human rights, social justice, and the human condition.
