ABOUT
Daniel Sheehan is a Pulitzer prize-winning editorial and commercial photographer in Seattle. Favorite assignments are making portraits where he can tell a story with a photojournalist’s eye. While not on editorial or commercial assignments, he photographs landscapes and aspects of the environment that attract his eye.The landscapes on this site were made with a Fuji 6x17 panorama film camera. The panoramic view best reflects his vision when looking at the environment.

He studied photography in Rochester, NY at Visual Studies Workshop and then spent three years in the Peace Corps, teaching photography at the Institute Technology Mara, Malaysia.

He and a team of colleagues won the Pulitzer Prize in 1992 for their coverage of a fatal crash of a subway train.
