Which artist and photographer was Georgia O'Keeffe's husband from 1924 to 1946?

Alfred Stieglitz was Georgia O'Keeffe's husband from 1924 until his death in 1946.

Stieglitz was a pioneering American photographer, publisher, and gallery owner who helped introduce European modern art to the United States. He first encountered O'Keeffe's abstract charcoal drawings through the photographer and art promoter Anita Pollitzer, then exhibited them in New York in 1916.

The relationship became both personal and professional. Stieglitz showed O'Keeffe's work at his galleries and made hundreds of photographs of her. They married in New York on December 24, 1924, even though their relationship was often complicated and they spent substantial time apart.

Stieglitz died in 1946, ending the marriage legally through his death. O'Keeffe later moved permanently to New Mexico, while Stieglitz remained closely associated with New York's early modernist art scene. He should not be confused with other photographers in his circle, such as Edward Steichen or Paul Strand.
