“It’s always about the light,” says Frank Brennan. “And often the light in Annapolis is terrific.” He has lived in Annapolis since 1991. A life-long sailor, you’ll find him with his Canon cameras on his Pearson 36. A native Philadelphian, Frank is a Penn State University distinguished alumnus, holding bachelors and master’s degrees in journalism.
His career began at the Philadelphia Bulletin. Frank left print journalism for radio and TV news where as a producer he won a national award for documentary film making. He would spend most of his career managing photographers and learning from them. Ultimately, Frank joined the U.S. Postal Service as a regional press spokesman before moving to Washington, DC, as agency press secretary, and subsequently vice president, Corporate Relations. Before retiring, he served two postmasters general as their chief of staff, positions he held for nearly 9 years.
His photos have appeared, among other locations, in the Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer, national and regional Civil War magazines, in print ads. A good number are in private collections. Today, he consults for major New York and Detroit ad agencies.
