One of the most surprising things about my formal photography and film education was the impact of a theory and analysis class.

“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.” There is no better role model for this Thomas Edison quote than Steve Sasson, the electrical engineer fresh out of grad school who was hired to work in a Kodak research lab in 1973. With a passion for scavenging parts and a penchant for invention, he developed the world’s first self-contained digital camera just two years after his arrival in the lab.
In honor of National Camera Day, we invited Sasson to the podcast for an in-depth discussion about his invention of this revolutionary
