Berenice Abbott

I met Berenice Abbott in 1972 and, through a series of fortunate incidents, was able to work with her for the next nineteen years. Working with her was both a privilege and a learning experience. When I met her, my interest in photography was just getting underway and much of the way I think about the craft of photography was shaped by my interaction with this exceptional person.

Working together, we produced Berenice Abbott – American Photographer (McGraw Hill, 1982), organized various exhibitions and portfolios and generally had a fine time. A camera was usually close at hand during these nineteen years, and the result was a number of photographs. Many of the images not specifically related to working with Berenice are shown in the Maine section of Places on this web site, but many of the more interesting photographs featuring Berenice, or those related to projects on which we worked, are showcased here.
