 Tom Algire began his self-taught large-format photographic career at the age of 25 in early 1969, following four months of hitchhiking throughout the western US and Canada, from his home near Washington, D. C. Enchanted by what he saw, especially in the national and state parks, and inspired by such visionaries as John Muir and Ansel Adams, he decided on photography, not only as an exciting and rewarding way to make a living, but as a way of bringing attention to the urgent need for wild lands protection.
Since that beginning, 40 years ago, Tom has traveled thousands of miles and taken thousands of images which have been published in thousands of books, magazines, calendars, posters and exhibits. His credits include: Arizona Highways, Texas Highways, Life Magazine, Reader's Digest, UNICEF, the Wilderness Society, National Geographic Society and the Sierra Club among many others. In 1988, he was recognized by the Sierra Club for the Ansel Adams Award: "For many years of dedication to the use of photography to promote awareness of the environment and environmental protection."
Tom has lived in northern Wisconsin throughout his career. He lives with his wife, Rita Wiechman, an artist, and has three children. | ||||
