Dan Budnik, who in a long career as a photographer captured abiding images of 1950s artists at work, key events of the civil rights movement, the Hudson River restoration effort, Native Americans in the Southwest and more, died on Aug. 14 at an assisted living residence in Tucson, Ariz. His nephew, Kim Newton, said the causes were metabolic encephalopathy and dementia. Mr. Budnik shot assignments for Life, Look and numerous other leading magazines, and his work was collected in several books, including “Marching to the Freedom Dream” (2014), which featured his pictures from three significant civil rights moments: the 1958 Youth March for Integrated Schools, the 1963 March on Washington and the protest march from Selma to Montgomery, Ala., in 1965.
