"Mark works in a classic documentary mode: her work imprints itself on viewers in the way that only great photography can."—Harpers Bazaar
Recently voted by the readers of American Photography as their favorite woman photographer of all time, Mary Ellen Mark has made some of America's most iconic photographs. She is unsurpassed at shaping both the odd and the everyday into genuinely surprising photographs that subtly yet powerfully challenge our preconceptions or intensify our convictions. Mary Ellen Mark's poetic and at times disquieting photographs form a fascinating portrait of a complex, amusing, and occasionally unsettling country and its people. MARY ELLEN MARK (born in Philadelphia, 1940) has achieved worldwide visibility through her numerous books, exhibitions, and editorial magazine work. Among her over-fifteen publications, most recently Seen Behind the Scene (Phaidon, 2008), her titles include Mary Ellen Mark: American Odyssey (Aperture, 1999), Mary Ellen Mark: 25 Years (Bulfinch, 1991), and Falkland Road (Steidl, 2007; Knopf, 1981).
