James Barnor at 95!

Barnor was Ghana’s first full-time newspaper photographer in the 1950s and is credited with introducing color processing to Ghana in the 1970s.

The remarkable Ghanaian photographer whose career spans six decades, work captures societies in transition during the 1950s and 1960s: Ghana moving toward independence and London becoming a multicultural metropolis.

His photographs have been rediscovered by new audiences, and his legacy continues to inspire.
