37 Stunning Photos That First Appeared In Sports Illustrated

Over the years, photographers for the magazine have captured the greatest moments in sports.


"There was a decision made through the company to restructure various departments, including at Sports Illustrated," Sports Illustrated director of photography Brad Smith told the National Press Photographers Association. "Unfortunately economic circumstances are such that it has cut the six staff photographers."


Robert Beck, Simon Bruty, Bill Frakes, David E. Klutho, John W. McDonough, and Al Tielemans were told of the decision on Thursday.


The magazine has been known for its iconic sports photography. Following is a sampling of the work staff photographers have done through the years:
