Wayne, Indiana, in the Midwestern U.S. He attended Indiana University from 1970 to 1974 and studied with the noted Bauhaus artist, Henry Holmes Smith. He later moved to California, where he and a group of other young photographers founded San Francisco Camerawork, the first nonprofit photography center on the West Coast. Morey served as Executive Director of Camerawork from its founding until 1981. Morey's photography work with abstract and whimsical black & white nudes garnered numerous exhibitions and awards, including a Special Jury Prize at the International Triennial of Photography in Friebourg, Switzerland, and First Prize at the California State Exposition. He was also named one of five worldwide "Discoveries" by the editors of Time-Life's Photography Year 1981. In 1981, Morey left San Francisco Camerawork to pursue a free-lance photography career. His clients since then have included hundreds of magazines, such as Architectural Digest, San Francisco Focus, California Magazine, Interview, Newsweek, Penthouse, Cupido, and the Journal of Erotica. He also works for corporate clients, including Apple Computer, The Gap, Bechtel Corp., Levi Strauss, Avon, Neutrogena and Wells Fargo Bank. ----> Venue Info <------------------------------------------------------ Madam S Leather 321 Folsom Street San Francisco 415.863.9447 ----> Additional Info <------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 415.863.9447 ----> The Squid List Admin <-------------------------------------------- The Squid List, a tentacle of Laughing Squid http://www.laughingsquid.org/squidlist/ To subscribe, unsubscribe or change your preferences: http://lists.laughingsquid.org/mailman/listinfo/squidlist/ Frequently Asked Questions & Submission Guidelines Squid List FAQ: http://www.laughingsquid.org/squidlist/faq.html ----> The Odeon Bar <--------------------------------------------------- Our little clubhouse in The Mission The Odeon Bar 3223 Mission Street @ Valencia, San Francisco http://www.odeonbar.com ----> Islais Creek Arts Group <----------------------------------------- Help save The Islais Creek Arts Group and stop the Illinois Street Bridge project: http://www.islaiscreek.org ----> Laughing Squid <-------------------------------------------------- Laughing Squid http://www.laughingsquid.org Underground art and culture from San Francisco and beyond! ----> Web Hosting <----------------------------------------------------- Laughing Squid Web Hosting http://www.laughingsquid.net Laughing Squid is an independently owned and operated web hosting service that specializes in web hosting for artists, individuals, non-profits and small organizations.
