Lauren HENKIN bio/
Born in Washington, D.C. in 1974, award-winning, internationally shown photographer Lauren Henkin grew up in Maryland. In 1996, after graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in architecture from Washington University in St. Louis, she moved home to Maryland and began working as an architect. During the next 10 years, she worked as the public programs manager for the Corcoran Gallery of Art, a book designer and creative director.
Henkin is a frequent reviewer, private educator, Photolucida board member, author of two artist books, frequent speaker on marketing techniques for fine art photographers, and active member in the photographic community. She has served as a guest critic for Portland State University’s School of Architecture as well as Lightbox Photographic and Lúz Gallery in Canada. In addition, she recently started PhotoRadio, a blog presenting audio interviews with curators, gallerists, artists, publishers, educators and more. Her work is supported in part by the Regional Arts and Culture Commission, located in Portland, Oregon.
She states, “The questions I am most concerned with when photographing are: What are the things that last? What, if anything is permanent? How are the things that we value or leave behind reflections of who we are?. A big part of what I do is provide a formal medium for valuing and studying informal subjects — to pay homage to things we see everyday; toys we leave on the floor, dresses hanging in a closet, or trees growing beside dumpsters. I tend to work from the inside out, using photography as a way to get to know myself better. The satisfaction in all of this is seeing the progression from one body of work to another, a visual diary of my life, my worries, my fears, and hopes.”
