Upon completing his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Art Center College of Design, David Hanover relocated to New York City to continue with his apprenticeship. After weighing a number of associate offers, he returned home to Los Angeles to build the foundation of his career in photography.

Once he was recruited by Tony Stone and helped build his stock agency to become the number one stock agency in the world, David's success as a photographer exceeded even his own expectations. 

David shot his way around the world for Stone, Getty and several fortune 500 companies in the advertising, fashion, and corporate arenas.
