About the American photographer, Sally MANN (*1951)
Sally MANN earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1974 and a Master's degree in 1975. She became known beyond the U.S. with a series of 65 black-and-white photographs of children, primarily her own, taken with a large format camera. This book of photographs was highly regarded-particularly for its family intimacy. Later work focused on landscapes, especially forests in her native southern U.S., with many references to the American Civil War. After a severe back injury, she took numerous self-portraits.
