Langdon Clay was born in Manhattan in 1949 and attended high school at St. Paul’s School in New Hampshire. In 1971, Clay moved to New York City, where he would pioneer fine art color photography with his collection Cars - New York City, 1974-1976. This collection is held in the Victoria & Albert in London, the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
Clay continued to photograph for the following sixteen years in New York, throughout the US, and in Europe for various magazines and books. His editorial photography includes Jefferson’s Monticello by Howard Adams, My Chateau Kitchen by Anne Willen and the publications Architectural Digest, House & Garden, and Food & Wine.
In 1987, he moved to Mississippi where he has since worked and lived with his wife, photographer Maude Schuyler Clay. His perspective on the South combines the eye of the native with the eye of the outsider.
