| My Favorite Picture From All 3 Photos. |
Harry Morey Callahan was born on October 22, 1912 and died on March 15, 1999. He was born in Detroit, Michigan and he worked in Chrysler when he was a young man. He then left the company to study engineering at Michigan State University. However he dropped out, returning to Chrysler and joined its camera club. Harry began teaching himself photography in 1938. He became friends with Todd Webb who also wanted to become a photographer. In 1941 he was given a talk by Ansel Adams, who inspired him to take his work seriously. Harry and Todd visited Rocky Mountain State Park, but came back without any photographs. In 1946 he was invited to teach photography at the Institute of Design in Chicago by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. He moved to Rhode Island in 1961 to establish a photography program at the Rhode Island School of Design, where he taught until he retired in 1977.
