George Lipman
George Lipman was a distinguished Australian photographer best known for his impactful work with the Sydney Morning Herald, where he captured significant moments in Australian history over nearly three decades. His most iconic image, featuring two boys—Indigenous Victor Hookey and his white friend Mark Anthony—walking hand in hand, symbolized the hope and optimism surrounding the 1967 Indigenous rights referendum. This photograph not only adorned the front page of the Herald, but it also became a lasting emblem of the fight against racial discrimination in Australia. Lipman's legacy extends beyond this single image, as he received the prestigious Walkley Award and contributed to various exhibitions, showcasing the vibrancy of city life through his lens.
