About Ted Orland:
Ted began his career as a young designer working for the legendary Charles Eames (his first project was working on Eames’ classic short film Powers of Ten), and later served as Ansel Adams’ Assistant and printer of Adams’ Yosemite Special Edition Prints.
In 1975 Ted abandoned nine-to-five employment in favor of a life of economic levitation, and for the past half-century has traversed a broad spectrum of art-related fields including teaching, writing, publishing and art photography.
Ted has taught photography at several colleges (including thirty years as a part-timer at Cabrillo College) and Workshop Centers, and self-published several books (including Art & Fear, co-authored with David Bayles) and his photography is represented through the Ansel Adams Gallery.
Ted's received multiple Artist in Residencies in Yosemite National Park and in Volcanoes National Park (Hawaii). He has also written recommendations for other artists applying for Residencies, served as juror for photographic juried shows, and has been a Reviewer since 2008 at the Annual Photo Alliance Portfolio Review in San Francisco. Ted is equally familiar with being on “the other side” of such endeavors, and has a stack of rejection notices to his own applications for grants, teaching positions, juried shows, and galleries.
