Sam Tata
Sam Tata (1911–2005) was a noted photographer and photojournalist.
==Early life==
Sam Bejan Tata was born in Shanghai, China, on September 30, 1911, to a wealthy, mercantile Parsi family.〔() Fisher Library, University of Toronto, Mss Collection 00448. n.d. Introductory notes.〕 He graduated from Shanghai Public School, and then studied business for two years at the University of Hong Kong.〔McLachlan, Ian; and Sam Tata. ''Shanghai 1949: The End of an Era.'' B. T. Batsford Ltd: London, 1989.〕 He took up photography at the age of twenty-four,〔Kunard, Andrea. "Sam Tata's Life and Photographs". In: BlackFlash Magazine. November 20, 2012〕 and was one of the founding members of the Shanghai Camera Club.〔 A friend at the club, Alex Buchman, who was working as a photojournalist for the ''China Press'', inspired Tata to buy his first Leica and roam the streets for meaningful images.〔Dessureault, Pierre. ''The Tata Era / L'Epoque Tata.'' Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography. Ottawa, 1988.〕 In 1939, he learned academic studio portraiture with Oscar Seepol, and he later studied with the photographers Chin San Long and Liu Shu Chong.〔 In his early photographs, he became adept in the use of lighting and in the additive techniques favoured by the pictorialists. His focus on portraiture in these years was partly dictated by the Japanese occupation of Shanghai in 1937, and Tata was not able to take up photography full-time until 1946.〔James, Geoffrey.
