American photographer. Jaffee's formal training came after he had been photographing for some time. His first major solo exhibition was “Inward Image” (1981) at the Brooklyn Museum. He has work in the collections of major museums including the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Smithsonian Institution and the National Portrait Gallery. His distinctive black and white photographs can be interpreted as self-portraits at various points in his life, and include nature landscapes and European scenes.
