Don Putnam

Born in Florence, Alabama, just across the Tennessee River from Muscle Shoals which became an important music factor for my family. I went to Coffee High School in Florence and received my B.S. degree from East Tennessee State University. After my stint in the Air Force I moved to Nashville, Tennessee to work for my brothers' recording studio, Quadraphonic Sound. I spent the next 20 years in Nashville working in and around the music business as a commercial photographer. One year I won a Dove Award from the Gospel Music Association for best album cover. I am now in Memphis, Tennessee (can't seem to stay away from music cities) specializing in event photography.
