The exhibition&#8217;s photographs, illustrations, and editorial cartoons are all part of the George D. McDowell <em>Philadelphia Evening Bulletin<\/em> Collection, which the Temple Libraries acquired after the newspaper ceased publication in 1982. Founded in 1847, the <em>Bulletin<\/em> published a daily afternoon edition for over 125 years. For decades, the newspaper&#8217;s signature slogan was &#8220;Nearly everybody reads the Bulletin.&#8221; The event is sponsored by the Temple University Libraries&#8217; <a href=\"http:\/\/library.temple.edu\/collections\/urbana\/\">Urban Archives Department<\/a> and Friends of the Libraries. An online version of the exhibition, featuring highlights, also opens May 3rd.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the artists:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/librarynews\/files\/2012\/05\/sal.jpg\" alt=\"sal.jpg\" \/><strong><em>Salvatore C. DiMarco, Jr.<\/em><\/strong> was born in 1947 in Drexel Hill, PA. He learned photography from his father, a portrait painter in Philadelphia. In 1970, he graduated with a B.S. degree from the School of Communications and Theater at Temple University. Mr. DiMarco first joined the staff of the <em>Philadelphia Evening Bulletin<\/em> in 1967 as a summer intern. He eventually became Chief Photographer, overseeing a department of more than 30 photographers, editors, and technicians. After the <em>Bulletin<\/em> closed in 1982, he became a free lance photographer and divided his time between editorial, corporate and industrial magazine assignments. His photographs have appeared in many of the world&#8217;s leading magazines, including <em>Time<\/em>, and he won more than 150 international, national and regional awards for his work. He passed away on June 11, 2004.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/library\/files\/2012\/04\/gilbert.jpg\" alt=\"gilbert.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"220\" \/><strong><em>Gilbert J. Tucker<\/em><\/strong> was born in Philadelphia in 1930. From an early age, he showed an interest in illustration. Upon graduating from Simon Gratz High School, he was awarded a scholarship to the Philadelphia School of Industrial Art, now called The University of the Arts. In 1951, he graduated from the Philadelphia School of Industrial Art with a diploma in illustration. Later, he continued his education at the Philadelphia Museum College of Art, where he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1962. After working for a number of years as a technical and commercial illustrator, Mr. Tucker joined the staff of the <em>Philadelphia Evening Bulletin<\/em>&#8216;s Editorial Art Department from 1968 to 1980. There, he was able to exercise the full range of his abilities by providing illustrations to accompany articles and editorials. Since retiring in 1993, he devotes much of his time to watercolor painting, including landscapes and cityscapes around Philadelphia and the New Jersey shore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>May 3, 2005 &#8211; June 30, 2005 Paley Library, main floor and ground floor lecture hall Paley Library&#8217;s latest pictorial exhibition will feature the works of award-winning photographer Salvatore C.
