Claverack photographer Sedat Pakay was born in Istanbul in 1945 and came to the US to study with legendary photographer Walker Evans at the Yale School of Art, where he received his MFA degree in 1968.

One of Pakay's favorite subjects was portraits of well-known artists; several appear in this show, including James Baldwin, Andy Warhol, Doris Lessing, and Walker Evans. His photographs are in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Smithsonian, and other major museums.
