Mark Klett (born 9 September 1952 ) is an American photographer.[1][2][3][4]

Life

Klett was born in Albany, New York.[5] After graduating from St. Lawrence University with a B.S. in Geology in 1974, he worked as a photographer with the U.S. Geological Survey. In 1977, he completed the MFA program at Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, New York studying with Nathan Lyons..

He is a Regents Professor and teaches photography at Arizona State University, and lives with his wife and two daughters in Tempe, Arizona.

Work

Klett's photographic work focuses on the western landscape and man’s interaction with it. In particular, his photographs respond to historic images and his projects explore relationships between time, change and perception.

He is particularly known for his rephotography projects, recently with collaborator Byron Wolfe, which included western landscapes, Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, and Glenn Canyon.
