To Whom It May Concern:

I am please to certify that DOUGLAS DEAN HAMM attended my Yosemite Photography Workshop in Yosemite Valley, June, 1963 and applied himself very well indeed. The workshop is directed towards the general technical and esthetic understanding of photography and while the problems relate mostly to landscape and the natural scene, we are concerned with many other aspects of photography as well, general technique, the philosophy of the Zone System (visualization, exposure, development, and printing) and the application of both large and small cameras in theory and practice.

Considerable work was done with Polaroid Land process, chiefly with the 4x5 system, and Mr. Hamm devoted much time and thought to this medium.

Mr. Hamm applied himself with great diligence. He is primarily interested in still photography in black-and-white and color, and I feel he can go far in these domains of the art.

I am pleased also to affirm that he is of high moral, ethical, and mental character, seems to be in the best of health and spirits, and possesses great enthusiasm and dedication to his work.

         Sincerely,            

Dr. David Jeremah

Dear Douglas,

Recently, my wife and I were given a beautiful picture, which we understand you photographed. The picture is entitled "Turning Point," the name of our nationally syndicated radio and television program. Our colleague and friend David Bolthouse purchased the photo and had it matted and framed. It now hangs right outside my office. I walk past it many times a day when I am here and it reminds me of the most important Turning Point in my life.

I understand it represents something similar in your life. I would love to hear your story.

I trust the Lord will continue to bless you and give you a great new year.

         Sincerely,
