Great Black and White Photography Part: 2

Jerry Uelsmann

Born June 11, 1934. Uelsmann was born in Detroit, Michigan.

Through out the time of attending public schools, at the age of fourteen, there set off an interest in photography. He believed that through photography he could prevail outside of himself, to live in a world captured through the lens. In defiance of poor grades, he was driven to land a few jobs, primarily photographs of models. In the long run, Uelsmann went on to earn a BA from the Rochester Institute of Technology and M.S. and M.F.A. degrees from Indiana University. Before long, he began schooling photography at the University of Florida in 1960. In 1967, Uelsmann had his first solo exhibit at The Museum of Modern Art which opened doors for his photography career.^[1]
