Tony Mendoza was born in 1941 in Havana, Cuba. Mendoza is currently an instructor of photography at Ohio state university in Columbus, Ohio. Mendoza's most popular work are of animals and flowers with his digital camera. Mendoza is colored blind so he was most comfortable with black and white film photography but eventually ventured off into digital color photography. Mendoza learned photography while working as an architect, which was what he had actually went to school for and received his degree in. It was ironic that he actually became a famous photographer.
