NorthPark Center offers one-on-one visits with Santa Claus in a new location on the Upper Level near Neiman Marcus and Barneys New York. Parents may take their own photographs of their children on Santa's knee or purchase high-quality portraits by Marc Robins Photography available in several different sizes and formats.

Heralded as "one of the country's premier Santa's" by CBS News, NorthPark Center's Santa Claus is a Dallas favorite. Carl Anderson, Ph.D., has been portraying Santa Claus for 25 years, the last 19 at NorthPark Center. Anderson, who has an uncanny resemblance to Old Saint Nick, is an adjunct professor of educational psychology at the University of Texas in Austin, a counseling psychologist working with families, a distinguished author of many books and an award-winning professional storyteller. He has been featured in "The Wall Street Journal", "People Magazine", "USA Today", and other national publications as well as on NPR, CNN, The Movie Channel and MTV.

Times for photos and one-on-one visits with Santa Claus are as follows:
Monday - Saturday 1:30 am - 2:00 pm, 2:30 pm - 5:00 pm, 5:50 pm - 7:00 pm

Sunday 12:30 pm - 3:30 pm, 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm

Christmas Eve 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
