: Name: Tom Gibbons

Tom Gibbons joined CameraArts as an Editorial Assistant in the Fall of 2005, and soon found himself editing Photo Journal, the one-time sister publication to CameraArts that was much enjoyed by the four people who read it. The elements that worked were transplanted to The CameraArts Blog and FRAMES: The CameraArts Newsletter in late 2006. Since then, it’s been a wild ride of learning in-depth aspects of fine art photography and writing about it on the fly. Also, Tom has learned that if you start using “local niche newspaper” to describe your publication, it’s better to start a blog, or to panhandle on the freeway.
