'''Gjon Mili''' (November 28, 1904 – February 14, 1984) was an [[Albanian-American]] [[photographer]] best known for his work published in [[Life (magazine)|''Life'']], in which he photographed artists such as [[Pablo Picasso]].
==Biography==
Born to Vasil Mili and Viktori Cekani in [[Korçë]], in the [[Manastir Vilayet]] of the [[Ottoman Empire]] (present-day [[Albania]]). Mili spent his childhood in [[Romania]], attending [[Gheorghe Lazăr National College (Bucharest)|Gheorghe Lazăr National College]] in [[Bucharest]], later he migrated to [[United States]] in 1923. In 1939, Mili started to work as a photographer for ''Life'' (a position he held until he died in 1984). Over the years his assignments took him to the Riviera ([[Picasso]]); to Prades, France ([[Pablo Casals]] in exile); to Israel ([[Adolf Eichmann]] in captivity); to Florence, Athens, Dublin, Berlin, Venice, [[Rome]], and to Hollywood to photograph celebrities and artists, sports events, concerts, sculptures and architecture.
Working with [[Harold Eugene Edgerton]] of [[MIT]], Gjon Mili was a pioneer in the use of [[stroboscope|stroboscopic instruments]] to capture a sequence of actions in one photograph. Trained as an engineer and self-taught in photography, Gjon Mili was one of the first to use [[Flash (photography)|electronic flash]] and stroboscopic light to create photographs that had more than scientific interest.<ref name="nytobit"/> Many of his notable images revealed the beautiful intricacy and graceful flow of movement too rapid or complex for the naked eye to discern. In the mid-1940s he was an assistant to the photographer [[Edward Weston]].
In 1944, he directed the short film ''[[Jammin' the Blues]]'',<ref>{{IMDb title|0036968|Jammin' the Blues}}</ref><ref>{{YouTube|g_WyhK-Urms|Jammin' The Blues}}</ref> which was made at Warner Bros., and features performances by [[Lester Young]], [[Red Callender]], [[Sweets Edison|Harry Edison]], "Big" [[Sid Catlett]], [[Illinois Jacquet]], [[Barney Kessel]], [[Jo Jones]] and [[Marie Bryant]]. Mili did not serve as cinematographer for the film ([[Robert Burks]] did) but the film used multiplied images that in many ways recall the multi-image still-frames done with the strobe. The imaginative use of the camera makes this film a minor landmark in the way that musicians have been filmed.
Over the course of more than four decades, thousands of his pictures were published by ''Life'' as well as other publications.<ref name="nytobit"/>
Mili died of pneumonia in [[Stamford, Connecticut]], at the age of 79.<ref name="nytobit">{{cite news |url= https://www.nytimes.com/1984/02/16/obituaries/gjon-mili-life-magazine-photographer-dies.html |first=William R. |last=Greer |newspaper=[[The New York Times]] |date=February 16, 1984 |title=Gjon Mili Life Magazine Photographer Dies}}</ref>
