Moscow-born Mikhail Trakhman was a Soviet photojournalist who documented World War II as a photo correspondent for the Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union. In the 1930s, Trakhman studied photography under Arkady Shaikhet, a prominent Soviet photojournalist, and took courses in cinematography. Despite his Jewish background, Trakhman’s photographs served more to advance Soviet ideologies through glorification of the patriotism and heroism of war than to expose the atrocities of the Holocaust.
