Historian and photographer David Rambow was recruited to work for the Siouxland Museums in Sioux Falls after receiving his degree in Cultural Anthropology from the University of South Dakota.
The soft-spoken Rambow, who said he's "on the wrong side of 50," has also worked for Minnesota's DNR at Blue Mounds State Park and as a Interpretive Ranger and Museum Technician for the National Park Service at the Pipestone National Monument in Pipestone, MN and Effigy Mounds National Monument in Harper's Ferry, Iowa.
Rambow is also among very few people in the United States who regularly use the authentic "Wet Plate" photographic technique to teach the public about the nearly lost art of 19th Century Photography. He uses this technique to produce one-of-a-kind hand-made fine art ambrotypes and tintypes.
His recent photo projects include: On-screen examples of tintype photographs for Paramount motion Picture feature "True Grit" (release date December 2010); and the "Dreamworks/Imagine Pictures feature "Cowboys and Aliens".(release date July 2011).
David Rambow currently lives and works in Pipestone, Minnesota where he has resided for nearly 20 years.
