Jared French (New York 1905 – Rome 1988) was an American artist attributed to the style of art known as "magic realism" along with contemporaries George Tooker and Paul Cadmus who became his lover after receiving his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1925. In 1937, French married Margaret Hoening, also an artist who was 15 years French's senior. For the next eight years Cadmus and the Frenches summered on Fire Island and formed a photographic collective called PaJaMa ("Paul, Jared, and Margaret"). In between Provincetown, Truro, Fire Island, and New York, they staged various black and white photographs of themselves with their friends, both nude and clothed. Most of these friends featured in the photographs were among New York's young artists, dancers and writers, and most were handsome and gay.
