Seattle photographer Ford Gilbreath won the 1999 Betty Bowen Memorial Award out of a field of 293 applicants from Oregon, Idaho and Washington.

The $10,000 award was established by friends of Betty Bowen (1918-1977), a Washington native and enthusiastic supporter of Northwest artists. Gilbreath has been showing his work throughout the Pacific Northwest for over 20 years, including a current display in Seattle’s Esther Claypool Gallery.
