About this photograph
Leonard Cohen, Canadian songwriter, folk singer, poet, novelist, and philosopher, came from a middle-class Jewish home in Westmount, Montreal, his father a successful clothing-store owner. Cohen would go on to study at McGill University and then Columbia University. He published his first book of poetry in 1956 and his first novel in 1963. This photograph was taken by Jack Robinson on August 9, 1967 a month after Cohen’s appearance at the Newport Folk Festival. There he was spotted by John Hammond of Columbia Records who signed him; they would release his first album later that year.

About the photographer
Jack Robinson, Jr. (1928-1997), born in Meridian, Mississippi, became a renowned fashion and portrait photographer after moving to New York City in 1955. He quickly gained recognition through assignments with the New York Times and Life Magazine. His career peaked at Vogue, where he photographed celebrities like Elton John, Joni Mitchell, and The Who from 1965 to 1973. Despite his success, Robinson struggled with personal issues and relocated to Memphis in the early 1970s, where he shifted to designing award-winning stained glass. His extensive photographic archive, discovered posthumously, underscored his significant contributions to photography.
