Tom Loughlin has been a photographer since his father entrusted him with a Kodak Instamatic camera at age four. He began using digital cameras three decades later. Tom studied English literature and filmmaking at Dartmouth College, and received a J.D. from the University of California at Berkeley. His project "After the Flood" depicted New Orleans and the surrounding area a year after Hurricane Katrina. It raised thousands of dollars for a rebuilding fund.
