Born in Jamaica, Charlie Phillips came to London in 1956.
Charlie’s photographic career began when he was given a camera by an American GI. Having taught himself, he began to photograph life in Notting Hill and the American celebrities who came to visit.
He worked as a freelance photographer for various magazines, including Stern, Harpers Bazaar and Life.
Travelling to The States, Sweden, Switzerland, Paris and Rome, Phillip's photographs have achieved an iconic status having snapped both ‘high’ and ‘low’ life, the ‘respectable’ and the ‘notorious’. Capturing life in the 1960's and 1970's from student riots to international superstars and bohemians.
The film "Rootical" by Nike Hatzidimon about Charlie's life and work has been awarded a special prize by Agnes B
He is also 2006 Winner of the Best Photo Documentary Award at The Portobello Film Festival
