George van Herwaarde (1938–2011)
He was born in Haarlem and photographed the youth scene in and around club Xeno. His serious photography career began as an assistant to fashion photographer Hans Dukkers in 1957. After a full-page publication with free work by his hand, in the Haarlems Dagblad in 1962, he decided to establish himself independently as a fashion, advertising and to a lesser extent as a portrait photographer. George van Herwaarde photographed fashion for De Bijenkorf and the International Fashion Center and Frans Molenaar's couture until the 1970s. After that he started painting, especially pierrots on large canvases. His remaining black-and-white archive contains approximately 7,500 fashion recordings from the hip sixties.
