Ansel Adams

   

     When Ansel Adam  was just a little kid he became sick as a child. He didn't have too many friends and was an impatient kid who was always curious and interested about nature from a very early age. With the death of his grandfather Adams’ father ran crazy in the family business which led to great financial changes in the family. By then their lives were turned upside down and there living style became poorly. Ansel was having a harsh time in school and making friends. He was getting thrown out of several privet schools, which made his Aunt Mary and father who tutored him.When he was 15 his father pulled him out of school and put him in a privet school, later during his 8th grade year he graduated. Adam shared a great bond with his father but had an uncomfortable bonding with his mother who disapproved of his photographic interest. Adams learned how to play the piano all by himself at the age of 12. He focused on music in the later years of his youth. Ansel Adams decided to make piano as his career. He learned how to read music and started playing music quite naturally and  as he kept playing he made the piano his primary occupation.
