Woods Hole 


The Woods Hole Library is bringing Benjamin Mendlowitz from his home in Maine to MBL’s Lillie Auditorium for a July presentation and slide show. Mr. Mendlowitz is one of America’s preeminent marine photographers. He is known throughout the world for his enduring Calendar of Wooden Boats , now in its 30th year, and for his work in various nautical publications such as WoodenBoat, Nautical Quarterly , Sail, Yachting, Cruising World, Professional Boatbuilder , and many others. Besides the Calendar of Wooden Boats , eight books of his photographs have been published, he has shown his work at a score of major maritime museums and galleries, and he has been featured in several public broadcasting television specials. 



Mendlowitz grew up in New York City. His passion for wooden boats began during the summers of his youth at the New Jersey seashore, where he visited and was influenced by the local traditional boat builders. After graduating from Brandeis University and spending one year in Florence, Italy, doing farm work and photography, he began a photographic career in Massachusetts. In his travels he met Jon Wilson, founder of WoodenBoat Magazine . Mendlowitz photographs soon began to appear in that publication. In 1983, Mendlowitz formed his company, NOAH Publications, and published his first Calendar of Wooden Boats. The company has since expanded its product line to include books, cards, screen savers and other items, all featuring Mendlowitz photographs of wooden boats. Benjamin Mendlowitz Marine Photography, a division of NOAH Publications, offers a stock photography service and custom photographic prints. 

A slide show and talk will take place on July 15, 2012 at 7:30pm in Lillie Auditorium, 10 MBL Street, Woods Hole. Tickets are $25 and are available at the Woods Hole Library, at the Bank of Woods Hole, and at Eight Cousins Book Store on Main Street in Falmouth.
