Essays and meditations on iPhone photography, artist residencies, mortality and more from the acclaimed New England photographer and educator

A memoir and meditation on the history of photography from one of New England’s most respected photographers, Rose Marasco (born 1948), this volume features short personal writings on topics ranging from artist residencies and iPhone photography to the early death of her father and includes selections from several bodies of work across Marasco’s long career. Lucy Lippard’s foreword situates Marasco as a key feminist voice among practitioners of vernacular photography.

Marasco is now a widely exhibited photographer with works in many museum collections, who has also spent decades as a beloved and highly regarded teacher of photography. Her keen eye and generous voice offer an important perspective on how photography can shape a lifetime.
