He later became a photojournalist and covered the Vietnam War among other newsworthy events. Life and careerRentmeester was born in 1936 in Amsterdam.[1] He competed with Peter Bakker in double scull and won bronze at the 1959 European Rowing Championships in Mâcon, France.[2] Bakker and Rentmeester reached the finals in double scull for the Netherlands at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome where they came fifth.[3] In early 1961, Rentmeester moved to the United States and studied photography at the Art Center College in Los Angeles. After receiving his Bachelor of Arts, Rentmeester initially started his career as a freelance photographer in 1965 for Life Magazine. A short time later, he joined the LIFE Staff from April 1966 thru 1972 when LIFE Magazine folded. He first covered the Watts Riots in Los Angeles, documenting many of the dramatic events, which earned him his first accolades as a photographer. Between late 1965 and 1969 Rentmeester was in Asia, where he particularly covered the Vietnam war. One of his pictures showed an M48 tank gunner looking through a gunsight. It was selected as World Press Photo of the Year and notably it was the first color photograph to win the award. He was also in Hong Kong during the extensive civil disturbances in 1967. After Rentmeester was wounded by a Vietcong sniper near Saigon, he returned to the U.S. in 1972, his pictures from a travel through Indonesia were shown in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC and Asia House, New York. In the following years, Rentmeester worked for numerous major publications as a photojournalist and as an advertising photographer Awards
