From the mid 1970s through 1998 Milton Heiberg owned and operated a 2000 ft2 studio in the heart of NYC’s photo district employing two photo assistants, an office manager, and a representative. The success of the studio was the result of a strong knowledge and use of computers long before other studios. His clients were the advertising and promotion departments within most of New York’s major publishing companies. The studio also did a substantial business with most of New York’s advertising agencies.

Milton has authored six books on photographic technique. The first five were camera guides for Nikon, Olympus, and Yashica-Contac camera systems published by Watson-Guptill Amphoto as part of the Modern Camera Guide Series, beginning in 1978. The latest book, The Essentials of Nature Photography, was published by Tern Book Company in 1997. It is currently being revised and updated to include Photoshop CS3.

He was appointed Chief Photographer for several archaeological expeditions in Israel under the direction of Duke University, University of Texas at Austin, and The Smithsonian Institute. He also created a photographic series on the Methods of Archaeological Excavation for the Archaeological Institute of America. Several of his photographs have been exhibited at and are in the permanent collection of the Israel Museum, Jerusalem.

In the field of nature photography, he founded the New York City Audubon Society’s Photography Committee and its Nature Photography Contest. He also founded and taught their Nature Photography course from 1982 until he moved to Florida in 1998.

Since his move to Florida he has been teaching courses in Nature and Landscape Photography at the Crealdé School of Art. He has been a major participant at the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival, Titusville, FL conducting many classes, field trips, and slide shows.

Throughout his career Milton has exhibited his work at major institutions including International Center of Photography, NYC, Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Yeshiva University Museum, NYC, McGraw-Hill (NYC office), Grey Advertising (NYC office), Crealdé School of Art—Showalter Hughes Gallery, Orlando, FL, and the J. N. "Ding" Darling NWR Visitor's Center, Sanibel, FL He will be doing an encore exhibit at the J. N. "Ding" Darling NWR Visitor's Center during January and February 2008.
