Dan Neuberger Obituary
Rochester: Dan Neuberger, age 87, Rochester, New York, January 23, 2017.
Born 1929 in the former Yugoslavia, Dan, his parents Ann and Paul Neuberger and brother Egon, immigrated to America in 1940.
As an eleven year old who spoke almost no English, he solo-navigated the 1939-1940 New York World's Fair.
It was one of his happiest childhood memories.
Dan received a Ph.D in Chemistry in 1953 from the University of Rochester, then served in the United States Army. He was a research chemist for Eastman Kodak from 1955 until retirement in 1986.
His passion for photography then blossomed and his reputation as a photographer who saw wit, humor and beauty in his often off-beat subjects gave him endless opportunities to shine.
Dan is survived by his wife, Isobel and dearest daughter Lisa (Cristian). He was predeceased by his parents and brother and his beloved daughter Suzy.
He will be missed by many, especially his good friends Paulette Davis, Betsy Phillips, Loretta Holley, and partners at Image City Photography Gallery, of which he was a founding partner.
At Dan's request there will be no funeral. A celebration of his life will be announced at a later date.

Dan was one of my oldest friends in the world. We met in 1946 on our first day at Columbia and were part of a close social group during those years. We have maintained contact ever since. Enid and I have cherished his friendship and warmth ever since. We will miss him.

Dan was exceptional. He cared about people and was generous in sharing time with me translating a scientific article from German at a time when we weren't even acquainted. Later I got to know him through his photography which was very creative. He took the ordinary and made it extraordinary. I felt honored when he told me he liked one of my photos that was on exhibit. My condolences to his family and friends.

Dan was a great friend to my father, Robert Cassie. He was so very kind when my dad passed, and it makes me smile to think they are now together taking photos of the heavens.

When Dan would bring his slide film to VisionOne for processing, he always had a joke for me and sometimes shared a bit of his life story with me. Such a nice man. I am so sorry for his loss.
