| Robert William Streeter was born in south east England and studied photography at the Regent Street Polytechnic in London's West End through the 'heady days' of the 1960's. He graduated in 1967 with second class honors in advertising and industrial photography. He began his career as a photographer in the darkroom of The Monotype Corporation Ltd (a major worldwide manufacturer of printing equipment) in 1962. After a number of years being employed in London studios and a period as a Ships Photographer with Cunard and Norwegian Caribbean he opened his own studio with in-house processing in 1978 at Crawley Sussex England adjacent to the busy Gatwick International airport. His clients at the time included among many others, British Airways, Dunlop Tyres, Esso Petroleum, Duracell Batteries and Philips Electronics (Holland) . In 1989 he emigrated to the United States where he continued to pursue his profession in northeast Tennessee for a further eight years before moving north to Rockport, Massachusetts in 1997 where he was able for the first time to engage himself in fine art photography. Since that time he has had work exhibited in art associations at Newburyport, Concord and Marblehead winning 1st Place for Black and White photography at Newburyport's 3rd Annual Juried Photography Exhibition.  Assistant Professor of Visual Art Stephen Frank from Boston University commenting upon Mr Streeter's work said, "He is blurring the line between a realist and expressionist tradition to give us an image that seems otherworldly". |
