- About The Author
- Jerry de Wilde was born in Brooklyn, NY, where he lived until he left to attend college at Columbia University in 1955. In late spring of 1965, he and friend, Anton Greene, an artist and filmmaker, rented the old 46-acre Barham Ranch in the hills above Warner Bros. Studios in Los Angeles. Over the next seven to eight years it became known as "The Farm," a creative environment that was a notorious haven for actors, writers, musicians, artists, designers, filmmakers and poets with something to say. In 1992, de Wilde was invited to be an associate professor of fine art photography at Woodbury University where he taught for seven years. Most recently he has been photographing and printing large and medium format black and white abstract landscapes shot mostly in the American Southwest and Scotland.
