Tom Parker: Dívka s deštníkem při cestě do školy, Jerome Relocation Center, Denson, Arkansas

Tom Parker byl americký fotograf. Fotografoval hodně v amerických internačních táborech, jako byly například Manzanar nebo Tule Lake v Kalifornii. Na pořizování obrazové dokumentace ze života lidí v internačních táborech se podílela řada významných fotografů, jako například Dorothea Lange, Hikaru Iwasaki, Clem Albers, Tom Parker nebo Charles E. Mace.[1]

Život a dílo

V roce 1942 pracoval 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 Manzanaru, Tule Lake, Poston, Topaz, Gila River a Minidoka.[2] Kromě fotografií pořizoval také dokumentární a propagační filmy.[3]

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.
