Bill Witt
American, 1921-2013
Born 1921, Newark, New Jersey
Witt studied photography at the Clarence White School of Photography in New York City and with Alexey Brodovitch at the New School for Social Research in the late 1930s. He worked for the commercial photographer Valentino Sarra along with Dan Weiner, who introduced him to the Photo League around 1940. During World War II Witt served as a photographer for the Army Signal Corps (1943–45). After the war, he taught the advanced technique class at the League in 1947 and participated in two group shows with League members: "In and Out of Focus" at the Museum of Modern Art (1948) and "This Is the Photo League" (1948–49). Witt remained a member until 1949. Outside the League, he exhibited his photographs in group and solo shows. In the late 1940s Witt began to study painting with Hans Hoffmann in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Renewing this interest nearly twenty years later, he studied painting at the Art Students League from 1970 to 1972.
