Born in a Parisian suburb in 1928, Daniel Frasnay was first apprenticed to the portrait photographer Roger Carlet. After working at Studio Harcourt and with Boris Lipnitzki, he was hired by Henri Varna to photograph the cabaret scene in Paris. Frasnay's photographs beautifully capture the complexity of Paris, from its glamour to its grime.
