    I am a photographer who documents areas of society that have not been recorded before. In the 1970s, I took environmental portraits of children from more than a hundred families in New York City from different socioeconomic backgrounds.

     

    One of my significant contributions has been documenting the key trailblazers from the second wave of the women’s movement. In 1981, I published their portraits and their stories in their own words in my book “Particular Passions: Talks with Women Who Have Shaped Our Times.”

     

    I also documented the interiors of traditional houses in Turkey, which are a significant part of their cultural heritage. They were published in "The Silk Road: Then and Now."

     

    Recently, I’ve documented the transformation of a private garden through the seasons.

     

    My work has been widely exhibited and published, with portraits in the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian, and New York Historical Society. It has also appeared on various media platforms more than 1,000 times, including Netflix, Nvidia, Intel, National Geographic, MoMA, the British Museum, and The Washington Post.

    Ruth Bader Ginsburg

    This chapter was excerpted from Particular Passions:
    Talks with Women Who Have Shaped Our Times.

    “But I don’t pretend to be neutral on issues when I am not. I like the students to understand that most of us have a perspective, most thinking people do, but that it’s important to disclose one’s biases. I’m not trying to brainwash people, but I’m not going to present myself as neutral. I don’t think my students have any doubt where I stand on the Bill of Rights.” — Ruth Bader Ginsburg

    “Then also I think being an artist is a state of mind. There were a great many frustrations in my life, too. But the only thing I can say is that I was looking for harmony and I think my long suit was that I was able to remember things and externalize them. I wanted harmony within myself, so I externalized it in my work.” — Louise Nevelson
