Warren Faidley (born May 11, 1957) is an American storm chaser.[1][2] Faidley is credited as the world's first full-time, professional storm photographer.[3][4]
His very first tornado chase landed him in Saragosa, Texas a small community that had been swept away by a violent F4 tornado on May 22, 1987.[5][6] His professional career was launched in October 1988 after he took a photograph of lightning hitting a light pole in an oil and gasoline tank farm in Tucson, Arizona. The image was published in Life Magazine,[7][4] billing him as a "Storm Chaser."[8][7]
In 1997 Faidley was the subject of Stephen Kramer's book Eye of the Storm.[9]
