Herm Hassinger
In photography since around 1975, after purchasing his first SLR 35 mm camera.
His early subjects were mainly family, animals and landscapes.
Now starting a new career in color photography after retiring from 3M in 2002,
his favorite subjects for his photos include flowers, buildings, including a
striking panoramic view of the city of St. Paul, bridges, cars, boats, children
(his own and grandchildren) and animals including: Lions, Eagles, Dogs, Cats,
scenic landscapes.
At 3M for 31 years doing Test Methods, Product Development and Product
Engineering, on or around 1998, his 3M manager took note of his photography.
Many of Herm's 35 mm and medium format photos, were enlarged, framed, and
displayed through-out his division area, in 3M Buildings, 235 and 250.
This of course encouraged Herm to continue his photography.
Some Herm Hassinger photos are currently on display at the
Ramsey Center for the Arts, 1071 West Highway 96
Shoreview Minnesota. 651- 486-4883 and
also at Vine and Branches Gallery and Gathering Place

A recent article on Herm's photos in the Vine and Branches newsletter states:
"Herm Hassinger a local photographer, has brightened our Gallery with beautiful
pictures that have been taken in the surrounding areas of St. Paul and
Minneapolis. His (St. Paul) Cathedral photograph is exceptional."
Note: Another of Herm's interest is in composing original music and he is
currently involved with a project which will result in Herm's first CD.
