The work of American photographer Albert J. Winn was primarily autobiographical and addresses issues of gender and religious, ethnic, and sexual identity. In 1993 he received a National Endowment for the Arts/Western States Arts Federation Fellowship for his collection of photographs and stories, My Life Until, dealing with his life as a gay Jewish man living with AIDS. Winn’s photographs can be found in the permanent collections of the Library of Congress; the Jewish Museum; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; Light Work (Syracuse University); and the Visual AIDS Archive, New York City. He lives in Los Angeles.
