Schneider, Gary
Schneider is a photographer and master printer. With his partner John Erdman, Schneider runs Schneider-Erdman Inc, a photography lab in New York City, which they opened at the urging of Peter Hujar in 1981. Hujar and Wojnarowicz both printed photography exclusively at their lab. Schneider-Erdman also printed photos for Nan Goldin, Richard Avedon, Matthew Barney, and many others. Schneider processed Wojnarowicz's film and made him contact sheets from 1984 on, and printed all of Wojnarowicz's photographs larger than 16x20 inches after Wojnarowicz began working more explicitly with photography in 1987.
A collection of Schneider and Erdman's prints is archived at Harvard as the "Schneider Erdman Printer’s Proof Collection."
