Photographs for LOOK magazine
A list with all the photographs taken by Stanley Kubrick from 1945 to 1950

Stanley Kubrick began his career as a free-lance photographer for LOOK magazine. After taking a picture of a newsvendor reacting to the death of US President Franklin Delano Roosvelt, Kubrick took this photo to the magazine and sold it for 25 dollars. A few months later, LOOK hired Kubrick as a photoreporter: at 17, he was the youngest photographer on the magazine's staff. Kubrick worked for LOOK from 1945 to 1950 when he dropped out this job in order to pursue film making.

This list contains all the photographs taken by Stanley Kubrick for LOOK magazine: for every photographic session, there is a description, a date of first publishing in a LOOK issue, and other books and magazines about Stanley Kubrick that reprinted these photos. More information about these books are in the reprints page. Whenever possible, a number of the pictures included for every article is provided, along with the number of reprints in the aforementioned books. If an information is missing, it is because it was not possibile to retrieve it for sure yet. The list of the reprints in LOOK post 1950 is not to be considered exhaustive: it is a mere inventory of some LOOK issues that reprinted Kubrick's photographs after he left the magazine.

This list is the most comprehensive ever compiled and was written by Matthew Hunt.

Every entry of this list presents the subsequent information:

Title of the photograph or the article (number of photos for the article)
Description of the photographs
(Date of first publishing dd/mm/yyyy)
Description and (date of subsequent publications dd/mm/yyyy)
Book where the photos have been republished - number of republished photographs

The photographs printed on Stanley Kubrick: Drama and Shadows by Reiner Crone are not the actual photos that were printed on the magazine, but alternative shots of the photo sessions requested to Kubrick. This book is included in the following list only when it was not possibile to retrieve the exact LOOK issue when the photos were published.

End note

The photo-story Wash Day In A Self-Service Laundry was photographed by Stanley Kubrick but it is not listed here, as its publication date is unknown.

The photo-story The Baffling Corpse (08/01/1946), sometimes attributed to Kubrick, is not included here, as it was in fact photographed by George Heyer.

All the photographs, unless stated otherwise, were printed in black and white.
