Bio Originally from Dallas, Texas Darryl Baird has a fifty-year(+) career as a photographer and educator. His initial education was at the United States Naval School of Photography in Pensacola, Florida. He next earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts, in Broadcast-Film Arts, from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. He worked for twenty years as a commercial, architectural, advertising, and editorial photographer. He left the commercial field for graduate school, first in a doctoral program in Aesthetic Studies at the University of Texas-Dallas, later earning a Master of Fine Arts in Photography at the University of North Texas. Darryl retired as Professor of Art (Emeritus) at the University of Michigan-Flint where he created and taught graphic design and photography programs. He led the department as chair of the Communication and Visual Arts department for a critical transition into a combined discipline. He currently works across a wide spectrum of techniques and media, including large format with vintage portrait optics and printing with antiquarian processes, to high-resolution digital images, frequently using the same vintage optics. His work is included in the collections of the Detroit Institute of Art, Museum of Fine Art in Houston Texas, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He lives with his wife and son in Newport on the Oregon Coast.
