Norman Mauskopf

Norman Mauskopf (born 1949 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American documentary photographer who has published three books.

Mauskopf's parents had fled Czechoslovakia following World War II and settled in New York City in 1947.

In a review Graphis Inc. writes: "In his landmark documentation of the region, chronicled in "A Time Not Here", Norman Mauskopf captures it all.

In stark, high-contrast black-and-white photos, the viewer strolls into Po’ Monkey’s Lounge for a cold beer and is then baptized into the murky, cypress tree laden tributaries of the Mississippi River.

Mauskopf accurately depicts a region whose clock has stopped mid 20th century, but somehow maintains everything else which is truly important.
