Ken Lubas was a photojournalist on the staff of the Los Angeles Times for more than 33 years before retiring to pursue a career in fine-art photography and photo illustration. His work has appeared on the covers and in the pages of Sports Illustrated, TV Guide, National Geographic, Time, U.S. News and World Report, Newsweek and Life Magazine among other national and international publications. His many recognitions include two Pulitzer Prizes as a Los Angeles Times photographer and numerous personal awards from major competitions. Presidents, Vice Presidents and Hollywood celebrities are among those who have acquired his work.

As traditional photography has merged with digital technology Lubas has been given the opportunity to step beyond the confines of film and given the ability to present the artistic image captured in the mind's eye. These images, many consisting of photo illustrations of Native American people and wildlife, were taken with the permission of the people portrayed in them.
