Not only is he a phenomenal photographer (his work is truly stunning), but he is a really down-to-earth, nice guy considering he has taken pictures of some of the biggest names in entertainment and sports (Iggy Pop, Chris Rock, Black Eye Peas, Jerry Seinfeld, Jack Black, Rihanna). Mark\u2019s editorial work has appeared in publications such as Men\u2019s Health, Vibe, Spin, Fortune, Billboard, Parade and Complex.<\/p>\n<p>At the Artstar party, Mark was showcasing his\u00a0new series of limited edition prints which document New York City\u2019s burlesque dancers.
