Peter B.Treiber is a formally trained photographer with an Associate Degree in Advertising Design from the State University of New York and a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Photography from the Art Center College of Design in California. After earning his BFA degree, he moved to New York and worked for three independent photographic studios in New York City. Later he became the Chief Photographer and the Manager of Communications Services at International Nickel Inc. in New York City. In 1977 Peter moved to Bethlehem, PA to work for Bethlehem Steel Corp. as an advertising photographer within their in-house agency.
In 2008 Peter published the book, Inside Bethlehem Steel: The Final Quarter Century, which captured the images of steel production at the once great company as well as the history and emotions of its employees during the long, but futile, effort to survive. Acting as publisher, he hired all of the professionals necessary to produce a traditional coffee table book. With text by Elizabeth A. Kovach, it is leather bound, 12" x 9", has 140 pages with 92 photographs, and a press run of 2,000 copies. ISBN 978-0-9798657-0-1
