Henk Jonker (Berkhout, 23 November 1912 – Amsterdam, 24 September 2002) was a Dutch photographer. During the war he worked at the Amsterdam population registry and became involved in the resistance. From the photographer Marie Austria (Marie Oestreicher)
he learned the photographic techniques for forging identity cards.
After the war, Jonker concentrated on photography. He married Maria Austria. She and a few others founded a press agency, Particam. His work in the context of the reconstruction was appreciated. His photos of the Flood are also well-known, because of his photos of people on the roofs of their houses. From 1986 onwards, Henk Jonker devoted himself to painting.
Due to the size of the work, collection is preferred.
