Katy Grannan is a photographer and filmmaker whose work depicts the lives of people at the margins of American society. Grannan often develops long term relationships with her subjects, creating collaborative portraits. Grannan was first recognized in 1998 for an intimate series of portraits of strangers she met through newspaper advertisements. Grannan worked for years throughout the Northeast and produced several different series entitled Poughkeepsie Journal<\/i>, Morning Call<\/i>, Sugar Camp Road<\/i>, and Mystic Lake,<\/i> each <\/i>referring to a local newspaper source or secluded location. Grannan’s process and the consequent images are informed by her own childhood in the American Northeast. Each photograph is imbued with secrecy, desire, and hidden intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n
