Nicholas Vreeland (American, b. 1954) The grandson of renowned fashion editor Diana Vreeland, Nicholas Vreeland became interested in photography at the age of 13, serving as an assistant to Irving Penn and Richard Avedon. On a photographic assignment to India in 1979, Vreeland met the Dalai Lama and was asked to photograph his first trip to North America. In 1985, Vreeland became a Buddhist monk and joined Rato Monastery, earning a Geshe degree - the equivalent of a PhD - in 1988. Vreeland founded "Photos for Rato," a series of international fund-raisers to build the Rato Monastery in India, largely aided by the sale of his photographs. In 2012, the Dalai Lama appointed Vreeland as the new Abbot of Rato Monastery; this was the first time a Westerner has been appointed abbot of an important Tibetan Buddhist Monastery. Vreeland currently divides his time between New York and India.
