Dali of the atom >: Which country is the photographer's work from?

Philip Halsman, author of Dali of Atoms.

Philip Halsman (1906— 1979) was born in Latvia, Europe, and began to take photos in 1933. During World War II, with the help of scientist Einstein, Halsman fled to the United States with his wife and children, with a box and a camera, and has lived in new york ever since.

In new york, Halsman's photographic talent was fully demonstrated. As a master of portrait photography, his portraits are famous for their ingenious surrealism and humorous snapshots.
