Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Fred Berman sitting in front of one of his wooden assemblages.
Author or copyright owner	Milwaukee Journal (photographer unknown)
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: Milwaukee Journal, January 30, 1966, for newspaper publication Immediate source: https://archive.jsonline.com/134717378.html
Date of publication	January 30, 1966
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Fred Berman
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	In my belief, this is the most visually powerful representation of the artist that could be found. I have made a reasonable effort to find free alternative photos of this person but he was only regionally well-known in a time where there weren't an abundance of alternative free images to find.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	It's just one biographical image for one article representing the artist's biography.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	Again, this person was a regionally successful artist in the late 20th century. Its hard to imagine how using this image would hurt the commercial interests of the owner as they are not a celebrity that would bring in commercial capital.
Other information	The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 2011
