In 1990, world-famous photographer Lotte Jacobi bequeathed to the University of New Hampshire much of her life's work, including 47,000 negatives and images taken over her 80-year career in photography. Her impressive and deeply historically significant life's work is housed in UNH's Dimond Library Special Collections.

UNHInnovation is proud to present this signature collection of some of Jacobi's most popular and frequently requested works.

Lotte Jacobi is an important figure in the history of photography, with a long and prestigious career, capturing images over an almost 80-year period, from 1908 to 1986, throughout various parts of the world including Berlin, the Soviet Union, New York City, and the state of New Hampshire. She is famous for her black and white theater and dance images and portraits of prominent 20th century figures. Her photographs are notable for their intimacy, and the personal qualities that she reveals in the faces of her subjects. UNH awarded Jacobi an honorary doctorate of fine arts in 1973.

These images are available for license under our standard editorial terms, or for scholarly and educational use.
