I took a fantastic History of Photography course from Bill Jay at ASU in the 80′s.

Now I am looking for contact info because I have a rare colloidal plate which may be of great interest to him. Do you have an email address for him.

Your help is greatly appreciated

Thanks

Chris Merchant

Bill Jay is an interesting fellow…does anyone know where he is now? I was his model for months in college and would love to see some of the photos he took! I can be reached at jieni4@sbcglobal.net

I had Bill Jay as a Photo History Teacher at Arizona State University in 1974-75. I just saw the Nov – Dec issue of LensWork, and he writes End Notes for the magazine. No known contact for him, but try LensWork at 800-659-2130 in Anacortes, Washington, or editor@lenswork.com.
