Washington Apple Pi Graphic Arts SIG

The Graphic Arts SIG meets Saturday, June 13, 2009 at Mac Business Solutions.
Time: 10 a.m.
Topic: What can you do with those cell phone pictures
Speaker: Harvey Duze

To start with, I have over 35 years of professional and creative photographic and graphic Harvey Duzedesign experience. I grew up in Bayside, Queens, New York, where I became interested in photography at an early age, thanks to my father and uncle, both of whom were talented amateur photographers.

After graduating from high school, I studied first at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, earning a AAS degree in Fashion Photography, then later at the Rochester Institute of Technology, in Rochester, New York where I earned my BFA in Photographic Illustration.

I’ve worked on staff and/or contract for Prudential Insurance, Lockheed Martin, and DuPont, as well as ran my own photography and graphic design business for 10 years in Wilmington, Delaware. I'm currently working on staff for Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in Washington, D.C.

My photographic background includes handling a wide range of corporate and editorial location and studio photographic assignments. In recent years, urban and rural landscapes, nature and people have been my favorite subjects. While the majority of my work has been done in the Northeast, U.S., I've also traveled to other parts of the U.S. and Canada, as well as overseas to Ireland and Italy.

I also have experience in the area of graphic design and desktop publishing, having handled many assignments ranging from graphics to illustrate presentations and both print and Web-based publications, logos and corporate identities and the creation of both speaker-support and self-running "kiosk" PowerPoint presentations, and Web-based HTML and Flash slideshows.

My work has been published in the original edition of the Time-Life Photography Library, annual reports of DuPont and American Express, as well as various other print and on-line publications. It has also been exhibited in both one-man and group shows in New York City, Trenton, NJ, and in recent years at the Montpelier Cultural Arts Center in Laurel, Maryland, and currently in Washington, D.C.

In 2008, I started to publish books of my photos on Blurb.com. Currently there are three books released, with several more on the way.

You can get information about these books, as well as where my photos are currently being exhibited, by clicking on the "Books/Exhibitions" link below. My presentation will be a talk about creating and selling books using Apple and other software. My Web site: www.hadphgd.com.
