It was while working as an intern under the famous New York photographer Bruce Cotler that Richard Liebowitz furthered his passion for photography and developed his own career as a freelance photographer; he wrote about this experience in his book, Apprentice! Lessons Learned on the Frontlines of Life. Richard is rarely seen without a camera in his hand, and he enjoys the work he does.

Presently in his career, alongside all of his work in theatre and photography, Richard Liebowitz is also the founder of Noir Press, which he opened in January of 2022. Additionally, he is an investor in the first-ever museum of Broadway located in Times Square.

He is a member of the New York Press Photographers Association. 

Alongside his busy and fulfilling career, Richard Liebowitz ensures that he makes time each week to volunteer with The Bowery Mission, a soup kitchen and homeless shelter serving the increasing population of New Yorkers who are experiencing hunger, poverty, and homelessness. So far, the organization has been successful in feeding more than a quarter million meals, providing 56,000 nights of shelter, and donating more than 20,000 articles of clothing, and Richard is currently working with the Mission to increase their reach even further.
