Photographer Henry Horenstein has completed somewhere between thirty and forty traditionally published books. I don’t have to tell you how incredible this is, but I do need to tell you the range of book is equally impressive. From children’s books to technical manuals to the most beloved of all photographic objects…the monograph. And here’s the best part. He’s been teaching since the early 1980’s, sharing and helping generation after generation become better photographers. And he’s cool. Yes, a nice guy to boot. And funny. He’s rare is what I’m getting at. Henry was in Los Angeles to give a talk at Canon Hollywood and was nice enough to sit down with me. Thanks Henry!

As one who grew up north of Boston, in Ipswich and Hamilton, and went to school in Providence RI back when Wheeler – Henry will know the reference – was an all girls’ boarding school, I found this conversation delightful. It’s nice sometimes to listen to a person we’ve never met and realize we share the same home turf. Henry brings a calm and considered thoughtfulness to the table which allowed this listener to slow down, smile, and enjoy.
He’s a total stud. So prolific and has maintained a great sense of humor.
