Robert L. Burrill
I was born in historic Washington D.C., raised in sunny California, inspired by the magic of Walt Disney’s Hollywood and my fathers frequent use of his camera. I appreciate photography as an “art-of-the-fact” because with a date & captions photographs become “time travelers.” (See my books on local history) In ’69, I began teaching and writing my curriculum,“4 Views on Photography.” Understanding the craft led to my art. Early on I met Ansel Adams and made films on his colleagues. In 1984, I became a journeyman film maker with Ruth Bernhard who past on my birthday in 2006. Ruth was 101 years young. RbArts.Com was designed in homage to my “Kindred Spirit.”
