We are currently confirming faculty

William Albert Allard |
One of the National Geographic's most prolific
and talented photographers, Allard's artistry has resulted
in some of the Geographic's most memorable stories and individual
pictures. Full of vigor, Allard's critiques are classics
and his no-mince-words approach embraces insightful and useful
advice. He is always one of the Summit's most popular faculty

Carolyn
Cole |
A staff photographer
for the Los Angeles Times, where she has spent 12 years covering
national and international news. Her courageous and prolific
work across the world's hot spots over the last decade has
has garnered attention and awards from World Press Photo,
the Robert Capa Courage in Photojournalism, the Pulitzer
Prize. Most recently in 2007, Cole was named Photojournalist
of the Year in the NPPA's Best of Photojournalism competition
|
MaryAnne Golon |
Director of photography of Time magazine,
where in recent years, great photojournalism is a prized
part of the editorial content of a magazine that began as
a text-driven journal. When the old weekly LIFE magazine
went away, Time began using pictures in new ways. But over
the years, content-driven great photographs of the weeks'
events have never been used better nor showcased more effectively
than the Time of today. Under her watch, Time covers the
events of the world with the most talented photojournalists
and every week, shows its readers things beyond the daily
newspapers and television. Golon is an enthusiastic and discriminating
lover of great photographs and as a Summit Workshop veteran,
is one of the most popular faculty members. |
Jim
Richardson |
Has work appearing regularly in National
Geographic magazine and National Geographic Traveler in addition
to Geographic books. Though not a staff photographer, he
is on assignement for NGS projects almost full time and for
good reason. Richardson, a onetime newspaper photographer
in Kansas and Colorado, brings amazing story-telling techniques
along with detailed research to his pictures. Thirty years
ago, he began photographing the area around his hometown
in north central Kansas. The result was a series of picture
stories that combined, among other things, an award-winning
audio-visual presentation about Cuba, Kansas. In 2004, the
Geographic sent him back to those same places, resulting
in a sensative look -- now and then -- at small town America.
