Bill Dane (aka Bill Zulpo-Dane, born William Thacher Dane on November 12, 1938) is a North American street photographer. Dane pioneered a way to subsidize his public by using photographic postcards.[1][2] He has mailed over 50,000 of his pictures as photo-postcards since 1969.[3][4][5][6][7] As of 2007, Dane's method for making his photographs available shifted from mailing photo-postcards to offering his entire body of work on the internet.[8]

Dane studied Political Science and Art/Painting at the University of California, Berkeley.[4] He graduated with a BA in 1964, and a MA in Art/Painting in 1968. Dane painted for seven years before discovering photography in 1969.[2][9] He worked with Diane Arbus and Lee Friedlander at Hampshire College in the summer of 1971.[10][11]

Photographic career

Dane was recognized by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation with Guggenheim Fellowships in 1973 and 1982.[14] He received Fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1976 and 1977.[15] He used his grants to photograph inside and outside North America. The results of Dane's explorations have been viewed on his photo-postcards, in exhibitions, catalogs, books, magazines, and over the internet. Unfamiliar Places: A Message From Bill Dane was his seminal exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in 1973.[4][5] While Dane continues as a straight, still photographer working in public places, his pictures have evolved dramatically over time.[13]
