A. Aubrey Bodine

A. Aubrey Bodine (1906–1970) was an American photographer and photojournalist for ''The Baltimore Sun'''s ''Sunday Sun Magazine'', also known as the brown section, for fifty years. Bodine is known for his images of Maryland landmarks and traditions. Bodine's books include ''My Maryland'', ''Chesapeake Bay and Tidewater'', ''Face of Maryland'', ''Face of Virginia'', and ''Guide to Baltimore and Annapolis''.

He was born July 21, 1906, in Baltimore, Maryland. After entering professional photography in the mid-1920s Bodine's artistic style developed from three distinct affiliations: ''The Baltimore Sun'', the Photographic Society of America (PSA), and the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA). Bodine exhibited his pictorial photography across the United States and around the world, in competitions that attracted top art photographers. Bodine's staff position on the Baltimore ''Sunday Sun'' put him into the photojournalistic milieu, with its roots in straight unenhanced photography. Provided by Wikipedia
