Which American photographer did Georgia O'Keeffe marry in 1924?

The story behind the answer

Georgia O'Keeffe married American photographer Alfred Stieglitz in 1924.

Stieglitz was a major figure in American photography and the owner of the New York gallery known as 291. He first exhibited O'Keeffe's drawings there in 1916, before they had met in person. Their relationship developed afterward, and they married on December 24, 1924.

Stieglitz photographed O'Keeffe extensively, creating hundreds of portraits over several decades. Their marriage was important to both artists' public histories, but O'Keeffe was not simply a subject of his work: she developed an independent career and distinctive artistic reputation. Stieglitz continued promoting her art while she increasingly divided her time between New York and New Mexico.
