Brooklyn-born N. Jay Jaffee began taking photographs after returning to New York from army service after World War II. He studied at the Photo League and was mentored by Edward Steichen, then curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art, who was responsible for the first appearance of Jaffee’s work in a group show, 51 American Photographers (Museum of Modern Art, 1950).
