Ronnie T. Clark is native to Los Angeles and was raised in South (Central) Los Angeles. He studied photography at Los Angeles City College where he discovered a love for photojournalism after working at the campus publication, The Los Angeles Collegian.
Clark admits that he is drawn to the dark side. Inspired by the works of Bruce Davidson, Weegee, Boogie and others, his work seeks to document the strengths and the weaknesses of his subjects and reveal the underlying social issues behind the images without pretense.
“There’s so much beauty in the world,” says Clark. “If we suddenly stopped believing the stars were beautiful, would that make them any less so?”
