Ansel Adams in Focus: A Members Only Lecture with Alan Ross

Thursday, September 6th, 2018

 

Learn about the man behind the famous images from the perspective of someone who worked side-by-side with him for nearly six years. Drawing from his personal experiences, recollections, anecdotes and memorabilia, Alan Ross will give a glimpse of Adams not often seen—from his devilish sense of humor to his passion for the environment and social justice.

Alan Ross is a renowned photographer whose unique vision combines traditional photographic methods with today’s technology.

He honed his vision and technique while working side-by- side with Ansel Adams as his full-time photographic assistant and was integrally involved with Adams’ books, teaching in Yosemite and production of fine prints. Alan was personally selected by Adams to be the exclusive printer of the Yosemite Special Edition Photograph negatives, an assignment he has enjoyed for nearly 40 years.
