Emotion in Action: The Sports Photography of Bill Wood

St. Mary’s College of Maryland’s Boyden Gallery opens the fall semester with “Emotion in Action: The Sports Photography of Bill Wood,” running through November 19. A special opening reception to meet the photographer is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 7 at 7:30 p.m. in the Boyden Gallery, located on the second floor of Montgomery Hall on the college campus.

The exhibition charts Bill Woodโ€™s impressive career from his training in photography at the University of Delaware through his current role as a contract photographer for the St. Maryโ€™s College of Maryland Department of Athletics.

Momentous moments that led Wood to St. Mary’s College of Maryland include working as a staff photographer for multiple Maryland news outlets, a team photographer for the Washington Commanders (then called the Redskins), and a contract photographer for Cal Ripken Jr, the famed shortstop for the Baltimore Orioles.

Discover these moments through the range of memorabilia that accompanies the stunning photographs on display.
