THIS VIDEO: Vivien Maier was not only a really good photographer, but she was a master of self-motivation and she had an unrelenting dedication to her work. Over her lifetime she took 585 different self-portraits and in total shot 143 000 images. In Chicago she adapted her photography practice to accommodate her job as a nanny. She developed her photographic practice as a source of meaning and as a way of connecting with the world. She also happened to be very talented. But the most powerful aspect of this whole story is the depth of her commitment to photography and the desire get out and photograph over-and-over again. A few decent images wouldn’t have made her a household name, but over time and through perseverance she managed to leave behind a broad personal vision of the world in which she lived. ABOUT ME: The conversations focus on topics related to different aspects of photography including: art, documentary and photojournalism. The discussions explore the personal experiences of photographers and artists and how their work reflects both their internal and external landscape. During the past 30 years I have photographed in over 50 countries for magazines including National Geographic, Time, New York Times and Newsweek. I have held solo exhibitions in New York, London and Paris and my work is showcased in private and institutional art collections around the world.
