Where the Magic Happens: On Set with Mary Ellen Mark


When the photographer Mary Ellen Mark died in 2015 at age seventy-five from myelodysplastic syndrome, she left behind a vast and varied five-decade trail of portraits and documentary pictures, collected in twenty books and dozens of exhibitions, radical in their close, nuanced, and compassionate depiction of persons from all walks of life. Most of her work was shot in black and white, and originated from magazine assignments (
Vogue, National Geographic, Vanity Fair, Life, Look, and
Premiere, among dozens of others). The journalist Adrian Nicole LeBlanc, who collaborated with Mark on several such stories, witnessed firsthand the genuineness of her engagement, which, she wrote, “allowed her subjects’ singularity to grow in her presence, the way listening stirs the possibility for deeper conversations that otherwise won’t get heard.”

A Three-Volume Book Becomes a Testament to Mary Ellen Mark's Career


A Three-Volume Book Becomes a Testament to Mary Ellen Mark’s Career
The late photographer, who left behind more than two million images, spent her life in search of the elusive iconic frame.

Photobooks - January 26, 2021
“Mary Ellen would never have made this book,” Martin Bell, Mary Ellen Mark’s husband and collaborator of more than thirty years, writes in an essay accompanying
The Book of Everything, the three-volume collection of the photographer’s life’s work recently published by Steidl.
After Mark died at age seventy-five, in 2015, Bell imagined a book that would truly encompass the “everything” of her tremendous output, including her photographs of children in China, Chicago, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, and North Carolina; of circus performers and teenage runaways; of sex workers in Mumbai; and of film sets and drag queens and coal-mining families and twins and celebrities. The result is an affecting testament to the vast scope of Mark’s vision and to the immersive devotion with which she approached the people she photographed.

In National Museum of Women in the Arts Exhibition, Mary Ellen Mark's Photographs Capture... - Artwire Press Release from ArtfixDaily.com


On March 3, the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) opens 
Mary Ellen Mark: Girlhood, a new exhibition of works by one of the most prolific documentary and portrait photographers of her generation. The exhibition features approximately 30 images that span Mary Ellen Mark’s 50-year-career, depicting girls and young women living in a variety of circumstances all over the globe.
 Mary Ellen Mark: Girlhood is open through July 11, 2021. 
Mary Ellen Mark (1940–2015) is known for her compassionate and candid depictions of subjects living outside of mainstream society. Over the course of her career, Mark traveled extensively, creating bodies of work in diverse communities in the United States as well as India, Mexico, the former Soviet Union and other countries. While Mark photographed people of all ages and from all walks of life, she was particularly interested in children. “I don’t like to photograph children as children,” Mark said. “I like to see them as adults, as who they really are. I’m always looking for the side of who they might become.”
