Peter Magubane Peter Magubane’s photographic career began in his schooldays with a Kodak Brownie. His work for Drum Magazine in the 1950’s secured recognition for his politically-inspired work, but during the apartheid regime led to arrests, a five-year ban against taking photographs and solitary confinement, in the 1970’s, while photographing a demonstration outside Winnie Mandela’s jail cell for the Rand Daily Mail. His coverage of the June 1976 Soweto student uprising earned him widespread international acclaim, including several photographic awards. After moving to New York in 1980, Magubane worked for TIME, and in the mid-1980s was commissioned by National Geographic to compile a photo essay on the Ndebele. Magubane, now 73, currently devotes his creative energies to celebrating the lives and art of communities in post-apartheid South Africa. Peter Magubane is the photographer for AmaNdebele, a memorable tribute to the resilience and creativity of the Ndebele people in South Africa. Extras Reviews, News & Interviews:
