Looking for an old teacher, Othell O. Owensby. He was AP/UPI Houston Chronicle Photographer in 70's & 80's. He taught and helped us run our photography section at Northwest Academy in the 70's.

Robert, you need to contact The Houston Chronicle to confirm this, but I believe he died several years ago. He did some great work.

I'll check some of my PI databases, that's an odd enough name something should show.

Might try calling the Chronicle, as he was working as the Operations Administration Manager in October 2001.

He also renewed his driver license last year, so he's most likely still alive.

Hi Robert!
This is Susan, Othell's daughter. Just curious as to whether you ever located him. I live in Atlanta now and have not seen him for years. I understand he is remarried and lives in Richmond, Texas. I would love to know anything you found out about him. Hope this is the same Robert I remember...
Susan
