Bio:

Dan Cleary is a professional and fine art photographer based in Dayton, Ohio, who has been creating images for many years. He has an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art, and is known for his thoughtful, quietly evocative photographs of Midwestern landscapes and cityscapes. His work often explores the overlap of history, community, and place—whether in his ongoing Ohio Landscape series or in projects that blend archival imagery with contemporary scenes, like his Wright Brothers: Then and Now and Indianapolis 500: Then and Now series. In addition to running Cleary Creative Photography, Dan is also an educator and mentor who teaches students and adults how to see light, create photographs with intention, and use their cameras as tools for genuine personal expression.
