Daniel Tepper is a photographer and journalist currently based in Tucson, Arizona.
After earning a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Arizona, Daniel studied in the photojournalism and documentary program at the International Center of Photography in New York City. Previously based in Israel and Palestine, where he photographed and wrote about conflict in the region, Daniel has begun working in India and Burma on migratory issues. He is most interested in spaces around the world where the land and the people who inhabit it have been indelibly shaped by their history - the unforeseen consequences and violence that took place over time and resulted persisting conflict.
Daniel is currently researching drone technology with photographer Vitttoria Mentasti. Together they are working on an documentary project looking into the Israeli drone industry and the wider implications of tele-robotic systems as the technology develops from military to commercial applications. Their work from this project has been exhibited in New York City and Arles and has been published by Time Magazine, Le Monde M Magazine, and Newsweek Japan.
Daniel's photographs and reporting have been published by The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, Newsweek, Le Monde M Magazine, Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin, VICE, Al-Jazeera, LaCritique.org, and Middle East Eye among others.

Daniel Tepper
Green Lines is an ongoing search throughout Palestine and Israel for spaces and situations created by the legacy of conflict that has shaped this corner of the Middle East.
The Green Line was a temporary border drawn out between Israel and its Arab neighbors, following that war of 1948 that saw the establishment of the Israeli State and the expulsion of Palestinians from their land. After the Six-Day War in 1967, Israel captured large swaths of territory beyond the Green Line and began building settlements on the land that lay over the now-defunct border.
Today the Green Line is still visible along portions of its length in the form of walls, patrol roads, and fencing. But in many areas the Green Line runs along the land hidden from view, mostly unnoticed. Wether existing in physical form or only on a map, following the Green Line exposed the beauty of the landscape and signs of the conflict that has fared this regions for many decades.
