illiam T. (Bill) Saul got his start in photography while earning his Master of Journalism Degree at UCLA under the tutelage of men who had worked for Newsweek, the Louisville Courier-Journal and the Los Angeles Times.
As a reporter for a local newspaper, Saul won several awards for spot news photography, and continued to make photography an important aspect of his professional development at Copley News Service, the Associated Press, and the ABC Television Network.
Additionally, Saul took related courses at Otis-Parsons Art Institute, and undertook private studies with Edmund Teske at the artist-photographer’s studio residence in Hollywood. During this time, he also served on the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Center for Photographic Studies. His stay there led him to participate in several LACPS group shows, and attend workshops by artist-photographers including Robbert (cq) Flick, Robert Heinecken and Joyce Niemanas.
After leaving ABC, a portfolio review of his photojournalism and more expressive images led to a 10-year teaching career in the Glendale Unified School District. He lives in La Canada, Ca. with his wife, Suzanne, an artist.
