http://www.lightstalkers.org/michael_limbert New photobook out now: "rangefound" www.blurb.com/user/mvlimbert ----- I was born in Niles, Michigan, a town famous for being the home of French Paper, Simplicity Patterns, The Dodge Brothers, Tommy Shaw of Styx and Tommy James & The Shondells (naturally, great things were expected). I earned a BA in English (with a concentration in Japanese) from Kalamazoo College and immediately got sidetracked, becoming an advertising creative in Chicago. It was there I entered the world of automotive photography, shooting open-wheel race cars for Team Penske on the CART and IRL circuits in the US and Canada, as well as directing closed-set sessions. In 2002 I self-published WAVE, a limited run book of images from a year's worth of US travels. In between subsequent work moves to LA, NYC, Chicago and Detroit, I performed in the US and Europe with the band FORTUNE AND MALTESE. Currently, I'm shooting images of "environmental isolation" and slowly adding to my RangeFound® blog: www.rangefound.com/ Recent Awards/Nominations 2013 American Photography 29 selection for AI-AP Archive 2011 PX3 Prix de la Photographie, "State Fair" Bronze, People's Choice 2009 International Photography Awards Official Selection ("Delicious" series, "Vegas Couch" single entry) 2009 New York Photo Festival Awards Nominee (American Tour photobook) 2007 PX3 Prix De La Photographie Paris, Honorable Mention 2005 APA-LA VisionQuest Winner, Places Category 2005 APA-LA VisionQuest Hon.
