Francis Leroy Stewart (22. července 1909, Mesa, Arizona - 23. srpna 1992, Willits, Kalifornie) byl americký fotograf. Fotografoval hodně v amerických internačních táborech, jako byly například Manzanar nebo Tule Lake v Kalifornii.

Život a dílo

Studoval různé umělecké školy, diplom získal v roce 1929 na umělecké škole v Los Angeles. Během první poloviny velké hospodářské krize se specializoval na reklamu pro noviny a časopisy. V roce 1935 byl zaměstnán u San Francisco Call Bulletin. V květnu 1942 začal pracovat pro společnost War Relocation Authority, což byl orgán odpovědný za internaci a stěhování japonských Američanů během druhé světové války. Většina jeho tvorby z let 1942-1943 se soustředila na japonské Američany a Japonce v deseti stálých táborech, včetně Tule Lake, Poston, Topaz, Gila River a Minidoka.[1]

Asi 1000 jeho negativů je spravováno v archivu National Archives and Records Administration, spadají do kategorie public domain a jsou k dispozici na úložišti obrázků Wikimedia Commons.
