Tom Arma, "the most published baby photographer in the world" began his photographic career as a teenager when he was hired by the largest circulation newspaper of its time, the New York Daily News, as their youngest staff photographer.

After years of daily deadlines, Tom decided to leave the world of journalism to open his own studio, concentrating on magazine and advertising work.

He shot successful campaigns for Fortune 500 companies, as well as covers for Time, People, Money, French Photo, and Ladies Home Journal.

In 1972 he began his work with babies. In the 1980's his work with costumed children graced the covers of magazines, including consecutive Christmas covers for Ladies Home Journal.

To express his ecological concerns, Tom created his Please Save the Animals series of posters and greeting cards.

This series of babies dressed in animal outfits designed by Tom was a huge success in Great Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Many successful advertising campaigns, based on Tom's costumed cuties have owed their successes to his innovative creations and photography. Tom Arma's "Mamiferos" (Mammals), his advertising campaign for Parmalat, has created a sensation in Brazil and Latin America.

Running since 1996, this campaign has captured the hearts of millions. It was the most popular campaign of the decade in Brazil. Over 50 TV ads have featured Tom Arma costumes.
