Lynn Radeka

Born in Chicago, Illinois, in 1951. I began my career in photography in 1969.

Lynn Radekas professional photography career spans over fifty-six years. Influenced in his early work by Ansel Adams and Wynn Bullock, who he had the pleasure to meet a number of times in the early 1970's, he continues to pursue a technical and aesthetic mastery of the medium of photography. His love of the grand landscapes and intimate details of the American West was born on his first trip to Death Valley in 1966. Lynn Radekas Black and White photography is currently featured in eight National Park posters and is represented by several galleries throughout the United States. He is also a featured photographer in the recent book publication "World's Top Photographers: Landscape". Lynn Radeka's photography books include Ghost Towns of the Old West, Historic Towns of America, Great American Hotels and Legendary Towns of the Old West, among others. Lynn is also the author and designer of the Contrast Masking Kits and Precision Pin-Registration Carrier Systems. He currently teaches Contrast Masking Workshops and conducts field workshops for small groups in Death Valley, Southern Utah, the Pacific Northwest and New Mexico.

Achieved an Associate in Arts degree in 1972. Private instruction from master photographers Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, Al Weber, Henry Gilpin and Ted Orland, 1973.,
