British photographer Peter Marlow (1952-2016) was an eminent, internationally recognised photographer and a two-time president of Magnum Photos. Marlow joined in 1980 and became a full member in 1986. He was made an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society in 2006, and his work is held in 12 public collections worldwide.

In his lifetime, Marlow worked all over the world, and his ever thoughtful photographs deal with close observation of the physical and personal landscape that is often overlooked. His lens was always on the human and social.

His work as a photographer captured major world events for prestigious magazines and newspapers.  Collections that hold his work include the Centre Pompidou, Arts Council England and Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
