Through publicity material, personal portraiture, and the work of individual photographers, jazz music has been documented and artfully represented in photographs throughout its development. This thesis examines the circumstances leading to such a wealth of photographs, the elements of the jazz photography tradition, and some of the important photographers and their jazz musician subjects. These photographs are a valuable source for historical study and make a compelling case for the contributions of photography to musical historiography.
