Jennifer Bishop has lived and photographed in Baltimore City since 1975. She published a weekly stand-alone photograph in Baltimore’s City Paper for 17 years. These photos were described as “small, revelatory moments that define the strangeness of everyday life…and seek to chronicle the soul of Baltimore.”* She also worked as a staff photographer for the Baltimore News American, and since 1981 has freelanced, shooting pictures for a variety of magazines, agencies, and institutions all over the world. The mother of two sons, she created Maryland’s first Heart Gallery, a photo exhibit to promote adoption of children with special needs. She currently writes and photographs for projects that advocate for better lives for people with disabilities.
