Society for Photographic Education

5
Prior to the 1960s, photography was taught primarily in departments of journalism at American universities. SPE emerged at a time when art departments were beginning to offer photography in their curriculum. In November 1962, a gathering of concerned photo educators in Rochester, NY, represented the intersection of fine art practice, education, and history. Early participants aimed to formulate the goals, future, and improvement of photographic education. The first annual national conference was held in Chicago in 1963 and the articles of incorporation were signed in May 1964. Since its establishment, many noted artists, curators, and critics in the field of photography have been involved with SPE or its programs.
