Tim Mickleburgh grew up in London and now lives and works in the Pacific Northwest. He studied graphic design and photography at the Bournemouth College of Art and was an intern at the Darkroom Workshop in Berkeley.
He worked professionally as an imaging specialist at a Seattle aerospace company, where he learned new skills in film and video production, photogrammetry, high-speed photography and color correction. He began teaching community college classes in basic darkroom techniques, and later became a full-time teacher in England and in Wisconsin, where he taught classes in photography, film and video editing, graphic design and media theory.
Tim has made personal photographs for as long as he can remember and is still fascinated by the medium and its effects on our view of the world. His investigations have led him to study visual perception and the process of learning and recall, but the grail remains elusive: to step out on a crisp September morning, like he did as a young man, with a brand-new Pentax, a fresh roll of film, and eyes wide open.
