| Bio
Andrew Clyde Little’s fascination with photography goes back a long way. Look closely at this picture of the author and his mother, taken in 1940 when he was just four years old.
Click on the little camera he is holding in the picture on the left. It is a miniature version of the folding Kodak his father used to record family events. The tiny camera was a toy, but it planted a seed.
Four years later his dad gave him a real camera – a Kodak Brownie Reflex – for his eight birthday. That was when his love affair with photography really began. The romance was consummated in a friend’s darkroom when he saw his first contact print emerge in the developer. Then, when he was 12, Little’s father built him his own darkroom in the basement of their home in St. Lambert, Quebec. There was no turning back.
His works have been exhibited in Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa and have been featured in newspapers and periodicals. Twice nominated for National Magazine Awards in the United States, he is the author of two books, On the Road Again … Again (Penumbra Press 2001) and Before Whispers Become Silence (Penumbra Press 2003). His photographs have appeared on the covers of This Country Canada, The Montrealer and Ottawa Magazine as well as Sleep is a Country, a book of poems by Anne Le Dressay.
Until
recently his works were not readily accessible to the public. Now,
thanks to the Internet and the development of archival quality digital
imaging, his collection is available to a much wider audience at
a reasonable cost. For further details, please go the the contact
