The Tanenbaum Lecture Series is the most established and distinguished lecture series on photography and media arts in Canada. Launched in 1975 within Toronto Metropolitan University's (formerly Ryerson University) School of Image Arts with a talk by W. Eugene Smith, the series has invited hundreds of leading photographers, video artists, filmmakers, curators and theorists to speak about their work to Toronto's rich audience for image arts. Among the speakers have been Berenice Abbott, Vince Aletti, Dawoud Bey, Stan Brakhage, William Eggleston, Robert Frank, Lee Friedlander, Alfredo Jaar, Sally Mann, Martha Rosler, Jamel Shabazz, Michael Snow, Thomas Struth, and John Szarkowski, among many others. This lecture series was made possible by a generous gift from Howard & Carole Tanenbaum.
