Cole Weston (January 30, 1919 – April 20, 2003) was photographer Edward Weston's fourth and youngest son. Although Weston "was born into the tradition of craftsman-produced black-and-white art photography, he was to find his own photographic direction in colour.".[1]
Cole Weston's life followed a diverse course that started with theater, later leading him to the Navy,[2][3] a position photographing for Life,[4] and later photographing portraits, before he moved to Carmel, California, in 1946, at his father's request. In the years that followed, Cole became his father's assistant and trusted companion; and, as Edward's struggle with Parkinson's disease worsened, Cole became the keeper of two careers, his father's and his own.[1] Before his death in 2003, Cole Weston was devoted to keeping both bodies of work flourishing and circulating widely.[5][6][7]
