1923-2016

Marc Riboud is born in 1923 in Lyon, France. At the Great Exhibition of Paris in 1937 he takes his first pictures with the small Kodak Vest-Pocket his father offered him.Marc Riboud, who has died aged 93, was one of the generation of French photojournalists who formed the core of theMagnum Photos agency in the immediate postwar years. His own longevity was matched by that of his output, which ran from his first snapshots of the 1937 Paris Exhibition to international coverage of peoples lives across Asia and Africa, Japan and the US, and into the new millennium, documenting the grace of everyday life, especially in sun-drenched parts of the world.
