Robert Mann Gallery : Friends + Family

Harry Callahan, the influential American photographer who studied and taught at the Institute of Design in Chicago (also known as the New Bauhaus, founded by Maholy-Nagy) invited friend and colleague Aaron Siskind to join the faculty.

While at RISD, Callahan also taught Ed Sievers, who then went on to teach Mike Mandel at California State University at Northridge.

Vincent McGhee, a former assistant coach at the University of North Colorado, fell in love with Turell’s s ability to shoot the three. He immediately told the rest of the staff to offer him, but they resisted. McGhee, who played at Sacramento State and Cal State Northridge, resonated with Turell considering he also was not heavily recruited out of high school. -- Fansided
