Artist Spotlight - The Podcast

Join show host Mitch Stringer as he welcomes self-described "road trip" photographer Rob Hann to the show. Rob's decades of work showcases his unique ability to make compelling photos of what may be described as "Americana". Born in London, Rob had a fascination with the American West and the often forgotten and abandoned signs, cars, buildings and other found objects he would discover during his lengthy road trips. Having not picked up a camera until age 31, the former fireman and waiter would be discovered as a model and enjoyed that work during a ten-year span. It was during that time he ventured into photography and his career arch is incredible. To check out Rob's work online it can be seen at www.robhann.com and on Instagram @rob.hann
