ABOUT
In front of the base of the Statue of Liberty circa 1982.
I grew up in Lafayette Park in downtown Detroit. As a little girl, I swam in the rooftop pool on the parking structure between twin Ludwig Mies van der Rohe towers where I grew up. I sat at the checkout counter of my dad’s immigrant grocery store, swinging my feet and eating King Cones that I grabbed from the freezer. At night, my mom would bring me to our family-owned blues bar, The Soup Kitchen Saloon. One night, I played piano beside blues legend Willie Dixon while the crowd danced on tables.
Then I became an artist.
Today, I’m a fashion and editorial photographer and creative director based in New York. I create images that explore the mystery, depth, and emotional resonance of what apparel can evoke.
My practice combines natural light, darkroom processes, and digital layering, transforming abstract photographs and fashion subjects into earthereal, otherworldly atmospheres.
My work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, The New York Times, and Elle, among other publications. My photographs and artwork have been exhibited in Paris, Boston, San Francisco, Berlin, and New York.
I have received repeat commissions from the Hall Art Foundation, Sotheby’s, Gagosian Gallery, Columbia University, New York University, Smith College, the Myles Group, and the Center for Jewish History.
I have lived and worked in Paris, Berlin, Boston, Northern California, Western Massachusetts, Los Angeles, and New York.
