Note: French photographer Marc Riboud was invited to join Magnum Photo Agency as an associate by Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Capa in 1953. In 1955 he became a full member. In the mid-1950s, Ribaud travelled to India in a specially converted Land Rover that once belonged to Magnum co-founder George Rodger, who had used it for his celebrated work in Africa. When he went to China in 1957, Riboud was one of the first European photographers to visit the country, returning for a lengthy stay in 1965 with writer K. S. Karol. Harry N. Abrams published Marc Riboud in China in 1997 and Marc Riboud Photographs at Home and Abroad in 2000.
