Jill Greenberg (born July 10, 1967) is an American photographer and Pop artist.
She is known for her portraits and fine art work that often features anthropomorphized animals that have been digitally manipulated with painterly effects.
Her photography of animals is regarded for its capability to show a wide range of expressions and feelings that are comparable to that of a seasoned actor or actress.
Some of the primates she has captured on film are actually celebrates in their own right, having been featured in different TV shows or movies.
She is also highly recognized for her distinct, and stylized photography of celebrities including well known performers such as Gwen Stefani, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Clint Eastwood.
She is also known for inserting her own strong opinions into her work.
In reference to her work Greenberg states "They're portraits and they're personal but there's a little twist going on.
An edge."
Personal life
Greenberg met her now ex husband Robert "Rob" Green in Los Angeles after moving there in 2000. Greenberg moved back to New York City in 2013 with her family for her husband's position as SVP, Creative-Digital at Condé Nast Entertainment.
Greenberg and Green have two children, daughter Violet and son Zed.
Photography career
Greenberg began working for Sassy magazine in 1992, photographing commercial photography as part of her growing artistic career.
Greenberg is best known for his celebrity portraits, who use painterly effects that are created using computer technology.
The Glass Ceiling project in 2011 involved shooting under water, using scuba gear. In a pool in Culver City, she hired experienced synchronized swimmers and photographed them. The Glass Ceiling series was on display in Los Angeles' northwest corner of Sunset Boulevard at Fairfax's northwest corner (viewable while driving east).
Greenberg published Horse, a collection of photographs that featured pictures of horses in October 2012. To photograph the photographs, Greenberg built photo studios within horse rings. Danny Virtue's ranch, a man who supplies horses to the film industry, was shot in Los Angeles in a place called Walker's Basin and also in Vancouver.
Greenberg opened an exhibition in Canada of images from "Horse" in January 2014.
The Atlantic asked Joan McCain to photograph John McCain for the magazine's October 2008 cover in August 2008. Greenberg said they didn't have enough funds to pay her, so they were allowed to use one of her images for the cover (while she retained ownership of the image) for one time use. Greenberg decided to take some personal photos of the images. "I didn't want there to be another Republican in the White House, so I decided to post my McCain photos out on voting day." According to her, the drawings were seen as political cartoons. "I thought it was Artist Jill Greenberg appropriating the Jill Greenberg's Commercial Photographer's Jill Greenberg's work."
