PRESIDENT’S LETTER
There is always a chance that when you ask for help, you will
receive it. Thank you again to all the volunteers who help
CPM run the day-to-day operations. We appreciate all of
those that donate their time to serve on the board, committees
and groups. A special thanks goes to JAMES RHEM and
PATRICIA DELKER for helping facilitate the Third Thursday
Programming over recent months. We still need volunteers in
the following committees: Membership, Education, Facilities
and Third Thursday Programming. Please contact any Board
Member if you have time to donate to an area of interest.
We feel that there are many exciting programs offered at CPM.
Photographer of the Month provides a platform for members
to showcase their work at CPM. The Third Thursday Lecture
Series gives members an opportunity to attend and learn
from the expertise of regional professional photographers
and writers. The monthly group meetings include Nature,
Landscape, Human Interest and Plastic Camera. These are
the perfect venues for meeting members with similar interests.
The CPM produced Midwest Small Town show is
continuing at River Arts Center in Prairie du Sac until the
end of July. Thank you again to the Exhibition Committee
led by BECKY MCKENZIE , for their work on this project.
Also, thanks to the juror IDA WYMAN for her work on

workshop, during which they learned about composition,
visual storytelling, and photographic technique. Writing

David Seidner: Paris Fashions, 1945 In 1944, the war-battered French couture industry decided to revive
its international reputation by conceiving a small exhibition entitled Théâtre de la Mode. The exhibition
organizer enlisted the major fashion designers of the day, to create outfits for small wire-frame dolls just
over two feet tall. With the return of the French fashion industry, the dolls had completed their work and
were donated to the Maryhill Museum near Portland, Oregon, where they disappeared from view. Under
an extraordinary set of circumstances in 1990, the dolls were rediscovered and returned to Paris, recoiffed
and restyled for an exhibition at the Musée de la Mode. Because of his pioneering work with French fashion
and historical gowns, DAVID SEIDNER was asked to photograph the little dolls. ICP will exhibit fifteen of
Seidner’s color photographs from the David Seidner Archive in the Permanent Collection, along with one of
the original dolls. Through September 20, 2009.

John Wood: Quiet Protest Quiet Protest is a series of photographic works by the noted mixed media artist and
educator JOHN WOOD, spanning a period from the 1960s through the 1990s. Through September 20, 2009.

The photographs of Small Town Midwest were displayed
at the River Arts Center, 105 9th Street in Prairie du Sac,
Wisconsin. They were from a juried exhibition arranged
and sponsored by The Center for Photography at Madison,
with additional sponsorship by Eannelli Pharmacy in
Prairie du Sac. IDA WYMAN, the juror, selected the images
from several entrants, bringing together photography
from both CPM members and nonmembers.

The images in this exhibition depicted life in small towns

anywhere in the Midwest varying from people, buildings,

differ from big cities.

The gallery featured the juried photographs. Around the

rest of the building were images from CPM members that
enhance the wonderful juried exhibition.

The award winners were best of show TREVOR PASSMORE

to darken the balloons to a silhouette with the blazing
white of the sun giving the impression of a fleet of ‘icarian’
vessels on a trip to the sun. I took many shots at the balloon
launch, all in color, but this one stood out, but only as a
black and white image.

her profile, her concentration all led to on of my favorite

IN MEMORIAM
Bill Maund lost his battle with pancreatic cancer on July
10, 2009. As a child, he suffered an illness that almost left
him without his sight. Perhaps that is one reason why he
placed such a high value on the visual image. Bill started
to supplement his income by working as a photographer
while he was still in high school. He often told how
he would be sent to capture 12 images of a wedding
with 12 pieces of film for his view camera. That type of
assignment encouraged discipline and visualization skills
which served him well throughout his life.
Bill served in the Air force as a photographer. It was there
that he met his wife, Kyoko, and Nyle Leatham, a famous
shooting sports photographer. The two families developed
a life-long friendship. After receiving his Bachelor’s degree
from the San Francisco School of Fine Arts, they moved
to New York City, where Bill set up his own photography
studio. When their children were of school age, Bill
and Kyoko decided that they wanted to raise their kids
somewhere other than New York.
Bill accepted a position at the UW Photo Lab and moved
to Madison. Eventually, the Photo Lab was absorbed by
the WHA studios. Bill worked as both a film and video
producer for WHA before he retired. Bill’s work was
WILLIAM J. “BILL” MAUND, MARCH 24, 1934 – JULY 10, 2009
published in both Time, and Life magazine. He has work
in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum
of Modern Art and the Eastman Museum of Photography.
He lived in a time when he was able to socialize with the
likes of Ansel Adams and Minor White. Bill was always
willing to offer advice and encourage photographers who
were interested in learning the craft.
Bill was a consummate teacher who made you learn in
spite of yourself by his straight-forward yet compassionate
and understanding manner in interacting with you. His
patience with you as an individual made you work harder
so that you would not disappoint him. He freely offered
his knowledge and took pleasure in your success and
accomplishment at the subject at hand. He brought this
same sense of professionalism to the task of organizing
and overseeing CPM’s education program after assuming
leadership for that activity during the past year. Several
new courses were offered because of Bills leadership and
his personal teaching in courses was highly rated.
Bill was also an engaging person with whom to discuss
a broad array of issues beyond photography. Part of his
charm was that he loved to tell a good story. He will be
greatly missed for his counsel, frankness, wisdom and
most of all, for his friendship. We will miss seeing his
highly professional images that served to inspire our own
work and his thoughtful commentary on our own work
during CPM Special Group Meetings.
