Historical NoteReturn to Top
Larry Friedman was a veterinarian and professional photographer. He was originally from Illinois where he received his doctor of veterinary medicine from the University of Illinois. In 1963 he moved to Southwest Wyoming where he began his veterinary practice and after 23 years of practice in Sweetwater County, Wyoming he retired in order to devote full-time to his freelance photography business, Wilderness Concepts Photography. In 1990 the Wyoming State Museum commissioned Friedman to produce a traveling exhibit to celebrate the state’s centennial. Agfa Film Corporation used his work for five years for advertising and promotion of their product at trade booths. Friedman’s work has been selected for photography awards (Wyoming Arts Council Fellowship, Ucross Art Foundation, Best of Show and 1st place at the Steamboat Springs Summer Arts Festival), exhibits (Nicolaysen Art Museum, Buffalo Bill Historical Museum), and publications such as Outdoor Life, North American Perspective, Visions of Wyoming, Wyoming Pictorial Guide, and over 100 post cards. His work is part of many private and corporate art collections worldwide.
