Hugh Downs for the Valley Guide

In late June, I photographed former broadcaster and television host Hugh Downs at the Sugar Bowl in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Hugh Downs has is well known for being the anchor of 20/20, host of The Today Show and the announcer for the Tonight Show with Jack Paar. He was a very nice guy and here are a couple shots from the shoot that will be published in the Fall 2009 edition of the Valley Guide here in Phoenix. Many thanks to The Sugar Bowl in Scottsdale for providing the location.

About

Mark Peterman explores narratives with photographs and multimedia. Although his work
is at home in the post-modern world it is very informed by history. A desire to be creative
on a daily basis fuels his curiosity about the human experience and he documents things in sketchbooks as a way of remembering his life.

Since he was young, he has been recreating the world around him through photographs and is continually refining his artistic vision by drawing on influences from music, literature and art. Mark's work reflects a graphic, story-telling quality with a cinematic feel, drawing on his design background while studying at the Kansas City Art Institute.

Mark enjoys photographing ordinary people who do interesting things. Although he is primarily a still photographer, he has recently started incorporating multi-media and motion into his work. Recent project themes include examining how ones memory is effected with the passage of time, exploring family histories on film and spending time in the meeting spaces of fraternal organizations.
