During a long career that began in the late 1940s, Stettner has worked as a freelance photographer for such publications as Time, Paris-Match, Du, Fortune, R\u00e9alti\u00e9s, and National Geographic and for various American and European commercial clients. He taught photography at Brooklyn College, Queensboro College, and Cooper Union, all in New York (1972-73), and at C. W. Post Center, Long Island University (1973-79). Stettner was a longtime member of the Photo League in New York, and his personal work exhibits a straightforward, documentary approach. Taking people as his central theme, he has published several books and photographic portfolios, including Paris Street Stories (1949), Workers: 24 Photographs (1974), Women: Portfolio (1976), and Sous Le Ciel de Paris (1994). He has received fellowships from Yaddo (1956, 1957) and the National Endowment for the Arts (1974) and a New York Creative Artists Public Service Grant (1973). Stettner lives in New York. M.M.",
