About the Artist

Marilyn Bridges (b. 1948, Newark, New Jersey) is an internationally renowned aerial landscape photographer who grew up in Bergen County, near New York City. In 1976, Bridges worked on a travel magazine assignment in Peru. She became fascinated with the prehistoric Nazca Lines, enormous geoglyphs depicting zoological figures and geometric shapes etched across the desert. In 1988, she returned to Peru for research on a Fulbright Scholarship. Her work has been shown in over 300 exhibitions worldwide and is collected in over 90 major institutions. She has produced eight books of photographs. Among her many awards, Bridges was elected a Fellow of the Explorers Club in 1988, received the Makedonas Kostas Award (Greece) in 1989, the Medal of Arles, Recontres Internationals de la Photographie in 1991, and the prestigious Women of Discovery Award “for Courage and Artistic Excellence” from Wings Trust in 2003.
