Robert Meyer (born October 2, 1945 in Oslo, Norway)[1] is a Norwegian art photographer, professor, photo historian, collector, writer and publicist.
In 1963 he became a professional photographer in the Norwegian National Criminal Investigation Service ("Kripos") in Oslo, and as a photojournalist in the newspaper Vårt Land, while freelancing for the weekly press.
Meyer returned to Oslo in 1967, and from 1971 to 1978 he worked as a photojournalist and editorial member for the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation's (NRK) magazine.
In 1976 he founded the publishing company Ikaros, which produced the Norwegian Photohistorical Journal, a series of books on photography and historically important facsimile editions.
His exhibition Icons of the 60's was made up of historical pictures in monumental sizes, mostly portraits of the musicians he had met during the 1960s, including John Lennon, Yoko Ono, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Rory Gallagher, Roy Orbison, Julie Felix and Norwegian artists like Terje Rypdal and Wenche Myhre.
