In 1950, Oxenburg co-founded the American Opera Society (AOS) with conductor Arnold Gamson and served as the AOS's Artistic Director for two decades. Despite its innovative programming, the Society was disbanded in 1970 due to lack of sponsorship. Oxenburg then became a respected photography dealer in Manhattan.
