 Melissa
Farlow stumbled into photography, as a junior at Indiana University because
the First Aid class she was looking into was full. She was in search of
one last class to fill her schedule as a yet undecided major, when her interest
in journalism prompted her to ask what was available in the journalism department,
Non-verbal communication was not only the answer, but the cure to her vocational
confusion. Farlow is currently a freelance photographer who has contributed
to National Geographic magazine for the past 12 years. Previously, Farlow
was a staff photographer at the Pittsburgh Press, the Courier-Journal and
Louisville Times. While in Louisville, she was part of a team that won a
Pulitzer Prize in 1976 for photographic coverage of public school desegregation
along with Bill Luster. Farlow has worked in three African countries for
“Women in the Material World," a book comparing women’s
roles in different cultures. She’s also photographed two National
Geographic books one in Chile, Peru, and Mexico for a book on the Pan American
Highway and another on U.S. public lands. Her images have won multiple awards
in the Pictures of the Year competition. Farlow received her B.A. in journalism
from Indiana University and her Masters from the University of Missouri
where she also taught photojournalism. She has been on faculty at the Missouri
Photo Workshop for 12 years, the Center of Photographic Studies in Louisville
and the Anderson Ranch of Fine Arts in Aspen. |
