Biographical NoteReturn to Top

Joe Karpen (June 6, 1950-) was born and raised in Long Island, NY. His parents were Morris and Leah Karpen. Joe Karpen was a student at the University of Washington in the late 1960s and early 1970s where he earned degrees in mathematics and oceanography. During his time at UW, Karpen was a photographer for The Daily newspaper and the TYEE yearbook where among the subjects he photographed protests and demonstrations that took place on campus and throughout Seattle. In his senior year at UW, Karpen decided to continue photography as a hobby, rather than a vocation. Karpen also earned degrees in meteorology from MIT and in engineering from North Carolina State University.

Karpen worked in design, programming, and oceanographic field work for an engineering firm in Raleigh, North Carolina for seven years. After that, he worked at Karpen Steel, the family door manufacturing business started in North Carolina by Morris Karpen. Karpen worked as Operations Manager at Karpen Steel for over 20 years until his retirement in 2005.

Karpen’s first experience with photography was learning to develop film at summer camp when he was 8. His first camera was a Kodak folding camera. In high school, Karpen was a photographer for the school newspaper and yearbook. During that time, he used a Canon Rangefinder camera. He bought his first Leica camera in 1968.

At the University of Washington, Karpen became involved as a photographer for The Daily and TYEE yearbook in his first year. Karpen said that he always had a camera with him. As a photographer, he was always an observer, watching, but not being part of what was happening. The photography advisor at UW, Dick Conrad, guided and encouraged Karpen and the rest of the staff to experiment. Karpen never took any formal photography classes but did audit a studio class for art students one semester.

During his time at UW, Karpen made nearly all of his photographs in black and white using Tri-X film which was exposed at ASA 640 and overdeveloped to add contrast. He and other photography staff used 100-foot rolls of film which they rolled themselves. With the Seattle weather, a light meter was not needed. Karpen kept the aperture setting at f11 and shutter speed at 1/125 unless the sun was out.

Karpen’s current photographic interests are contemporary dance and travel. He still uses Tri-X film which he develops and prints himself. He has added several film cameras to his photography equipment including a Leica M-6, a Canon underwater camera and a Pentax SLR, as well as a 28mm lens.
