Though Berko is best known for his black-and-white photos, which take on silhouettes and negative space and - of course, light - he was actually more widely recognized as a pioneer of color photography, becoming one of the first to recognize that color film was a new way to explore the world. A long time resident of Aspen, Colorado, He became the official photographer for the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies and the Aspen Music Festival and opened his own mountainside ski photography business. He is considered the Dean of Aspen Photographers.
