Paul Weinberg is a South African photographer, filmmaker, writer, curator, educationist and archivist. Weinberg studied photography at Natal Technikon and has a masters degree from Duke University. He began his professional career by working for South African NGOs, and photographing current events for news agencies and foreign countries. He was a founder member of Afrapix and South, the collective photo agencies that gained local and international recognition for their uncompromising role in documenting apartheid, and popular resistance to it. From 1990 onwards, Weinberg increasingly concentrated on feature over news photography, with his images being widely exhibited and published, both locally and abroad.
