Person properties

General info :
David Shankbone (born David Miller in 1974) is an American photographer, often photographing celebrities and popular culture.
Many of his work has been used for the Wikipedia free encyclopedia project and has been published by The New Yorker, Vanity Fair and Forbest.
He combines his photography with a full time job as Manager of a legal department on Wall Street.

He has been described by PBS as "arguably the most influential new media photojournalist in the world" for his numerous copyleft photographs uploaded to Wikimedia Commons and seen in Wikipedia, documenting celebrities, political officials and events, notably the Occupy Wall Street protests. As a Wikinews citizen journalist, he was the first to interview a sitting head of state, Israeli President Shimon Peres. His photography has seen much usage outside of Wikipedia, having been used by magazines and news websites such as the New York Times, the Miami Herald and Business Insider, and featured in an exhibition at the Museum of the City of New York.
