The two-photon above-threshold ionization of atoms is calculated using numerical algorithms of the Pade approximation in the model-potential method with the Coulomb asymptotics. The total and differential cross sections of the above-threshold ionization of helium and alkali metal atoms by elliptically polarized radiation are presented. The dependence of the angular distribution of photoelectrons on the sign of the ellipticity of radiation (the elliptic dichroism phenomenon) is analyzed in the above-threshold frequency range.
