• John R. Alley, this project's start-up and ongoing Webmaster, handles all of the Photography Criticism CyberArchive's technical aspects and, in consultation with Executive Director A. D. Coleman, created this site's internal structure and visual appearance. John, a photographer who lives and works in Richmond, Virginia, is an Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Richmond and the head of the photography program at a local high school.

You can find out more about John by visiting him at his own website.
• A. D. Coleman, Executive Director of this project (and of The Nearby CafŽ), is a widely published critic, historian, and theorist of photography. He conceived the Photography Criticism CyberArchive in the fall of 2001. In his words, "The CyberArchive grew out of my thinking about the material I posted on the web from 1995 through 2001 as part of my own long-running online newsletter at The Nearby CafŽ -- C: the Speed of Light. It's a logical solution to a problem I chewed on for years." You can find out more about Allan from his Author's Page here in the CyberArchive, or by visiting his home page at Adcoleman.com.
• Jasmine Gartner, Managing Editor of this project, came on board in fall 2002. She holds a doctorate in anthropology from the University of New Mexico, where she studied with Thomas Barrow and wrote her dissertation on the photography community 1960-1990 as a microculture. You can find out more about Jasmine from her Author's Page here in the CyberArchive.
• Donna-Lee Phillips, an Archive Author herself, does much of our keying-in of historic and out-of-print texts and scanning of images. Formerly a photographer, curator, and editor associated with Lew Thomas in the Bay Area's fertile photography scene of the 1970s and '80s, she now lives and works out of the mainstream in northern California. You can find out more about Donna-Lee from her Author's Page here in the CyberArchive.
