Workshop Faculty Updates

The Summit Workshops’ faculty never stop to amaze us in all the amazing work they continue to do. Below are some quick updates on some faculty and their recent accomplishments!

  • News Photographer Magazine featured a select group of faculty members from last fall’s Photography at the Summit workshop in the March issue.  Extensive interview Q&A stories were featured with the extensive words of William Albert Allard, Jodi Cobb, Tom Mangelsen, Jay Maisel, and Rich Clarkson. They are accompanied by full page portraits by photographer and Sports Workshop faculty, Joey Terrill.
  • Brad Smith, senior sports photo editor for The New York Times, came away as an unprecedented winner of first, second and third prizes in the sports picture editing category of  NPPA’s Best of Journalism competition announced April 24.  Never have all three awards gone to a single person.  Brad is a key faculty member at the Sports Photography Workshop — where he candidly announces each year that he is there looking for new talent.  In addition to being one of the best instructors.
  • Jodi Cobb, longtime National Geographic photographer and Summit Workshop regular, is the recipient of the 2012 Missouri Honor Medal for Distinguished Service in Journalism.  The medal is the highest honor at the School or Journalism (which Jodi attended). Previous elite recipients included Tom Brokaw, Winston Churchill, Walter Cronkite and Christiane Amanpour.
  • Summit Workshop faculty, MaryAnne Golon, was named the Director of Photography at the Washington Post. She is renowned for her many years of astounding work as both Deputy and Director of Photography at Time magazine. Prior to that, she was director of photography of U.S. News & World Report.
  • Thomas Mangelsen, a regular and local of the Jackson Hole Summit Workshop, won Conservation Photographer of the Year for his ‘Polar Bear and Cubs’ photograph from Manitoba, Canada that is featured above.
