A student of Ansel Adams and Minor White, George studied perception with Dr. Richard Zakia and earned an MFA in photography and graphic art from the Rochester Institute of Technology. His commercial clients include APC, Eastman Kodak, and Sears. He has published three books: At Home in the Wild, George DeWolfe’s Digital Fine Print Workshop, and B&W Printing.
