Gendler’s work has been exhibited at the Bushnell in Hartford
and the University of Connecticut Medical Center, and is on permanent
display at the Children’s Museum in Hartford and the Springfield
Science Museum in Massachusetts. He pioneered the use of mosaics,
hydrogen alpha color composites and mixed focal length composites
in amateur CCD imaging and has published six original articles and
tutorials on these and other subjects. His award-winning photographs
have been published in over 400 magazines and books, including over
40 cover pages, and have been selected as NASA’s Astrophoto
of the Day (APOD) 49 times, to date. In September 2003, Astronomy
Magazine selected his 2002 mosaic of M31 as one of the greatest
astronomical images of the last 30 years. The Royal Mail (United
Kingdom) selected his image of IC405 for a commemorative stamp.
His book, “A Year in the Life of the Universe”, published
in 2006, is now available in multiple languages including English,
Polish, Greek, and Spanish.
This
year, he has been selected to receive the “Hubble Prize”
at the 2007 Advanced Imaging Conference. He will also be one of
six astronomers featured in Timothy Ferris’ PBS special “Seeing
in the Dark”, to be aired this fall. In 2008, he will be listed
in the Guinness Book of World Records for his 2005 mosaic of M31,
the all-time largest image of a spiral galaxy. He lives and works
in Connecticut. |
