Dan Florin (b.1962) is a photographer based in the New York City Tri-State area. Dan frequently uses the streets of NYC as the location for pursuing his photographic projects. His most recent works examine the street politics of the sidewalk pedestrian and the compositions of commuter traffic. Regardless of the subject matter, metaphor and design are integral to his photography.

Dan was raised on the American/Canadian border of Northern New York's rural 1000 Islands area. He holds a BFA in Photography from SUNY at New Paltz and a MSED in Reading from CUNY at Herbert H. Lehman College. Dan worked as a B&W reproduction printer and small product photographer in New York City until starting his career in education. Dan has worked as an adjunct professor, and is currently a 4th grade teacher and union activist in Yonkers, N.Y.
