Arthur Mange taught in the Biology Department at University of Massachusetts Amherst for 31 years before retiring in 1995. He is the co-author of four books on human genetics, served on a number of Town of Amherst committees, and remains on the committee that administers the Burnett Gallery at the Jones Library in Amherst Center.

He has taken tens of thousands of 35mm black and white film photographs over the course of 50 years, and processes them entirely by himself from developing the film to framing the finished prints. Publich exhibits (solo or group shows) have been in Amherst,Hadley, Pelham, Leverett, Easthampton, Southampton, Northampton, Springfield, and Boston. The subjects have been varied--whatever Mange thinks would make good black and white pictures. The locales have also varied, from many places in the United States and from half a dozen foreign countries. Presented in this collection are his best images from New England and New York.
