Bill Frakes on campus Oct. 1
We’re delighted to announce that next week Sports Illustrated photographer Bill Frakes will be on campus. Bill has covered major sporting events around the world in a career that has spanned profound transitions in journalism and his own work first as a photographer and now also as a filmmaker.
Bill recently served as a chair for the World Press Photo contest for sports photography in 2013 that made final selections from over 100,000 entries. Whether you join us for an evening on the power of storytelling or a less formal setting, we’re confident you’ll leave seeing images on screen and in print in a totally different way.

Bill Frakes Bio
Bill Frakes is a Sports Illustrated Staff Photographer based in Florida who has worked in all 50 states and in more than 125 countries for a wide variety of editorial and advertising clients.
Many years ago, a young American mother named Agnes Frakespointed out images all around her tiny Nebraska town to her four-year-old son Bill: a cat’s shadow, a pool of oil beneath a car, his own name etched in a cookie tray of caramel popcorn. The boy looked at the objects and saw nothing. ‘Look again,’ she said. ‘There is always more there than what your eye sees…’ Twenty-five years later the boy became one of the most accomplished sports photographers in the world.
