Alan George is a San Francisco-based photographer who came\nto photography not through the halls of higher learning or by becoming enamored\nwith photography as a child or as an artist in another medium who discovers\nphotography as their "true\u201d medium but rather, as someone who used a camera in\nmuch the same way as most people do, to record life's events . . . in other\nwords, he was a snap-shooter.

In 2003 photography became a more central part of Alan"s\nlife, a way of exploring the social landscape.\xa0\xa0 The process of searching, selecting and examining\nsomething that would otherwise go unnoticed helped him to feel more conscious,\nmore aware, more engaged, more alive.
