Son of South African journalist, novelist, and political activist Harry Bloom, he is best known for his photography books and essays as well as his large scale outdoor exhibitions called ''Spirit of the Wild''. ==Career== Bloom's early interest in photography was inspired by the pictures in Life Magazine. In 1972 he trained as a gravure printer, and took portraits of people living under the Apartheid system. In 1977 he travelled to England where some of the pictures were published and exhibited internationally by The International Defence and Aid Fund. For several years he worked in graphic arts, and in 1999 was jointly responsible for the implementation of the Addison designs for the official posters〔Addison Espania 1989 – Creative Director Brent Oppenheimer〕 for the summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, 1992. Bloom began to photograph wildlife in 1993 while on vacation in South Africa.
