Scott Mead Author & Illustrator

Scott Mead is an American-born photographer and philanthropist living in London. A photographer for many years before a career in investment banking, he returned to photography over ten years ago after rediscovering boxes in his attic of his large-format negatives and prints, unopened for decades. Numerous exhibitions and group shows have since followed, and his works are held in many private and institutional collections around the world. Scott studied with renowned photographers William Eggleston and Emmet Gowin, both of whom have been important influences on his work.
