DR. HOWARD SHERIDAN ’65 has taken thousands of nature photographs, some which required travel by plane, by boat, and by boot, but many also happened serendipitously. Sheridan has donated 17 photos to the new Chemistry/Chemical Biology Building, where they are on permanent display.
Howard Sheridan DR. HOWARD SHERIDAN ’65 received his M.D. from Tulane Medical School in 1969. He practiced interventional and diagnostic radiology in Fort Myers, Fla.

In 1997, he founded Edison National Bank and is chairman of Edison Bancshares, Inc. His love of fishing and diving as a young boy led to an interest in underwater photography. After retiring in 2004, he began to concentrate seriously on wildlife photography, traveling from Alaska to Antarctica to photograph animals in their natural habitat. His award-winning images have been published in many magazines, including National Geographic. Dr. Sheridan and his wife, BRENDA ’65, are actively involved environmental conservationists. They hope his photography will inspire to protect and conserve our planet’s wildlife and habitat.
