Harold Feinstein began his career in photography in 1946.

By the time he was nineteen, Edward Stieichen had purchased his work for the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art and exhibited it frequently during his tenure there.

In his early career, Feinstein was best known for his black and white documentary style work, which has been shown often throughout his life in galleries, museums and journals.

Feinstein’s photographs have been exhibited in and are represented in the permanent collections of major museums including the Museum of Modern Art, the International Center of Photography, the George Eastman House, the Museum of Photographic Arts, the Musee d'Art Moderne, the Museum for the City of New York and the Smithsonian National Museum of American History.

When asked about my technique, I reply, “A prayer, A prayer of gratitude: Gratitude for the beautiful flowers, and Gratitude for the eyes to see them with."
