Join us for our next guest lecture, Immersive Storytelling: Artist Talk with Isadora Kosofsky
In-person at the LA Times Theater (Hillside Campus) + on Zoom.
Thursday August 4th, 2022 | 7PM PT/10PM ET
Isadora Kosofsky is a renowned documentary photographer based in Los Angeles. She is known for long-term projects centered on juvenile and mass incarceration, aging and relationships, healthcare, disability rights, and the impact of childhood trauma on women and families. Ms. Kosofsky began her career as a teenager, focusing on end of life and grief. She takes an immersive approach to documentary photography, often spending months and years with individuals and communities to gain an insider’s perspective. She has embedded with families suffering from rare illness in Latin America, lived under city bridges with unhoused communities in the Southwestern U.S, spent fourteen years photographing one woman’s struggle with Alzheimer’s Disease, and was one of the first photojournalists in the US allowed inside a COVID+ nursing home. Ms. Kosofsky is a National Geographic Photographer and a frequent contributor to the New York Times, the New York Times Magazine, TIME, Le Monde, and others. She received a 2012 Inge Morath Award for her documentation of three seniors in a romantic conflict, which became a book titled “Senior Love Triangle” published by Kehrer Verlag in 2020. The Royal Photo Society recently named her one of a hundred “heroines” in photography worldwide. Ms Kosofsky is a TED Fellow, part of a network of global innovators, and gave a talk about documentary photography at TED 2018 in Vancouver.
