Hello All:
I'll be brief, because his work speaks for itself. My brother/friend ED SHERMAN of New York City, is a photographer extraordinaire - and has been for eons. His work has been nationally and internationally acclaimed. He is up for a prize in the Fifth Annual Exposure Photography Award - a well deserved one - that can only be obtained via our votes - so I'm positing it on my blog. It can also be accessed via FaceBook, as well.
His work speaks for itself - there are some vibrant examples below. Please vote - share and encourage others to vote - this brother's work is unparalleled. He needs 100 votes and 100 original comments - and I'm sure he can garner much more. If you can't vote for him via my Blog, be sure and log onto FaceBook and vote for him there.
Thanks
Stay Blessed &
ECLECTICALLY BLACK

Ed Sherman
New York City
Edward Sherman has been photographing and excited
about making images since he was fourteen years old. His photographic
groundwork includes undergraduate fine arts studies at Brooklyn College,
photographic course studies at the New School for Social Research,
under Lisette Model and over forty years of photographic activity. He is
a former United States Marine Corps photographer, awarded for
professional achievement and photographic coverage. The years Sherman
spent working as a photographic color lab technician keenly focused his
visualization and technical skills. In 1980, Sherman expanded upon his
artistic skills after completing an internship in broadcast journalism.
He then worked as a video camera operator and editor for NBC News
affiliate, WNYT in Albany, New York. The experience of videotaping and
editing a broad-spectrum of news situations and a wide range of sporting
events have helped shape Sherman’s visual story telling ability.
Among the highlights of Sherman’s photographic journey is working as a photographer for the New York City Police Department. Sherman’s assignment as police commissioner Raymond Kelly’s photographer was indeed an honor and a sign of high regard for his photographic skills. Among Sherman’s major photographic assignments during his NYPD career was photographing Pope Benedict XVI during his 2007 three-day visit to New York City. After 911, the world changed and Sherman and other NYPD photographers have had a major role in documenting the aftermath. Sherman’s current personal photographic projects include images of Harlem street scenes, musicians, artists and everyday urban &
rural life themes.
Sherman has exhibited his photographs at (select listing): The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, Harlem, NY, The National Museum of Dance, Saratoga Springs, NY, The Stamford Center for the Arts, Sackler Gallery, Stamford, CT, Columbia University, NYC, Kenkeleba House, NYC, Brooklyn College, NYC, Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corp., Skylight Gallery, Brooklyn, NY, FESTAC 77, National Theatre & Gallery, Lagos, Nigeria, The Photography Gallery at Harbour-front, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, UBS Investment Bank, Stamford, CT, ACBAW Gallery, Mt.
