Biography
professional photographer, son of Jonathan Bear and Mary Ann, née Hefferd, was born in London. He was in Melbourne working as a photographer for William Insull Burman at Gertrude Street, Fitzroy, when he married Burman’s daughter, Emily Jane, in November 1868. He continued to work with Burman & Sons at various addresses, operating their Carlton Portrait Rooms at 221 Lygon Street from 1873. From 1877 to 1882 he was listed at 145 Smith Street, Fitzroy – apparently the Burmans’ Fitzroy Portrait Rooms, although Alan Davies has recorded a carte-de-visite identifying Bear in his own photographic practice at 60 Moorabool Street, Geelong.
