V. Tony Hauser, C.M.
Toronto, Ontario
Renowned master of black-and-white portraiture, Tony Hauser is one of Canada’s leading photographers. His celebrated photographs of influential Canadians and international personalities have been exhibited across the globe over the last four decades. As a humanitarian and ardent activist, he travels the world to focus his lens on social injustice and collaborates with charities to effect change through the power of his images. Using the labour-intensive, 19th-century process of platinum printing, he captures the essence of his subjects and preserves their story for future generations.
