How Magnum Works As part of the Magnum 60th Anniversary, WNYC's The Leonard Lopate Show interviewed Jonas Bendikson, Alec Soth and Mark Lubell (Magnum's director). Includes an interesting explanation of how the Magnum membership process works. In the recent portfolio review session, they culled down 250 submissions from each of the four Magnum offices down to 4-8 photographers being reviewed by all the members to become a Nominee. Last year there were no Nominees selected. Nominees have two years to create a new body of work for review before moving up to be an Associate Member. Associates then have two years to create another new body of work to be submitted for Full Membership. Full Members are members for life. Listen in the embedded player above or on the WNYC site.
