John Dominis was a free lance photographer for a number of national publications including; Life
Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Time, and National Geographic. John is credited for capturing some of
the most unforgettable moments of the 20th century.
In 1965 he photographed Mickey Mantle tossing his helmet in disgust after a terrible at-bat. This is
one of the most eloquent pictures ever taken of an athlete in decline. One of his most noted, yet
controversial pictures were at the 1968 Olympic games. He photographed American sprinters
Tommie Smith, and John Carlos on the podium with their gloved fists raised in a Black power salute.
