Photographer, Author & Explorer. In his quest to photograph and explore the remote landscapes and terra incognita of the American West and Old Mexico, and meet the region's Native peoples, John Annerino has climbed its hallowed mountains, journeyed on foot through its legendary chasms, trekked across its alluring mesas and daunting desert seas, and rafted its timeless rivers. A veteran contract photographer for Liaison International and Time Inc. TimePix photo agencies in New York and Paris, and Marka Graphic Photo & Archivium in Milano, John's photography has appeared in scores of prestigious magazines worldwide, including LIFE, Scientific American, Time, Travel & Leisure, The New York Times, National Geographic Adventure, Newsweek, People, and Arizona Highways, among many clients. He has consulted on the U.S./Mexico border for ABC, CNN, PBS, and National Geographic. The photographer and essayist of many critically acclaimed books, John's distinguished collection of seventeen photography books showcase "remote exposures" of the region's extraordinary landscapes, capture the primal beauty of its mesmerizing dreamscapes, and sensitively portray its resilient cultures, including the award winning Indian Country, Desert Light, Vanishing Borderlands, and Canyons of the Southwest. His work ranges from his most cherished photographic essay, Indian Country: Sacred Ground, Native Peoples, to his most heart wrenching and perilous book, Dead in Their Tracks: Crossing America's Desert Borderlands. His colorful series of thirty-two single-artist calendars includes Desert Light, Inspiration, Arizona Wild and Scenic, Rodeo, Mayan Long Count Calendar, The Natural Landscapes of Mexico, La Virgen de Guadalupe, Haciendas, Mercados, and Tradiciones de Los Charros. John's unique vision and lifetime commitment to photography, publishing, and breaking new ground illuminates his "passion to document endangered places, peoples, cultures and traditions."
"John Annerino is one of a handful of photographers with a real empathy for the West.
His work has an edge to it, reflecting the sheer size and power of his subject -- a subject
he treats with respect and love. This land, which is so much a part of the American
psyche, now threatened by pollution, by the spread of human settlement, and by
exploitation, is as raw and as exciting in Annerino's work as it is in our mind's eye."
