Ivan McClellan is a Kansas City native who grew up with violence and drugs as part of the landscape. He left for NYC just after high school to study the arts and ended up in advertising. He is a self taught photographer, but has tipped his hat to others in the field who have helped him buff up his skills. He recently published a beautiful book titled 8 Seconds, which documents black horse culture, including black rodeo, which has a long and storied history in America. His clients now include Wrangler and Stetson, among others.
