Women of Vision: National Geographic Photographers on Assignment

For the last decade, some of the most powerful and impactful stories published by National Geographic have been produced by a new generation of women. Women of Vision: National Geographic Photographers on Assignment features work by eleven photographers: Maggie Steber, Kitra Cahana, Amy Toensing, Carolyn Drake, Diane Cook, Lynn Johnson, Beverly Joubert, Jodi Cobb, Stephanie Sinclair, Erika Larsen and Lynsey Addario. They are as different as the places and the subjects they have covered, but they all share the same passion and commitment to storytelling that has come to define National Geographic.

With more than 100 photographs and multimedia, this exhibition profiles the lives and work of these important photojournalists, capturing compelling stories of our planet and its people from the savannahs of Botswana to the war torn streets of Libya and Afghanistan; the beaches of the Jersey Shore to the Mongolian steppe or the rainforests of New Guinea. Their stories explore modern realities and what it means to be human in the 21st Century. Women of Vision was curated by National Geographic Senior Photo Editor, Elizabeth Krist.
