Daniel File
 
   
...a keen observer for much of his life. 
 
Dan File has been a keen observer for much of his life.  It has been instrumental in his successful careers as an actor, theatrical designer, and educator, but it is most fundamentally expressed in his photography.  

Dan believes it is his work in the theatre, especially as a lighting designer, helps him translate three-dimensionality in the two-dimensional medium of photography. In his diverse range of styles and subject matter, whether color or black and white, the common factor of his visual work is the play of light and shadow, whether controlled in the stage and studio or 'found' in natural light.

As an actor, Dan has appeared in over 75 productions in a number of regional theatres in the South and Midwest (including the Rep, Stages of St. Louis, and Shakespeare in Forest Park). He is a member of  Actor’s Equity Association and the American Federation of Radio and Television Artists.
