As a portrait photographer, Richard Corman has worked with a vast group of subjects from Nobel Peace Prize recipients to a variety of artists, actors, athletes and some of the most esteemed musicians of our time. The continued diversity of his work can also be found in the many non-profit organizations he has supported over the years including the Special Olympics, a cause very close to his heart.
