Photographer's Profile

Anne Connor

United States

Anne Connor is an award-winning visual artist and fine-art photographer based in Ridgeway, Wisconsin. Although she travels extensively, she finds her most authentic work is created on the small farm she shares with her family and a curious menagerie of animals she and her husband have curated over many years. Her daughters, the land and their animals feature prominently in her work and have served as the inspiration for many of her exhibitions, both in the US and abroad. There is a quiet, pastoral quality to her work that comes from years spent working on the land and with animals. Connor, who made her living as an essayist and feature writer before turning to photography, views the visual arts as one more way to share stories that evoke feeling, curiosity, and a sense of wonder. She naturally gravitates toward shadows and light and is intrigued by what images can both reveal and conceal. Connor's work has been shown throughout the United States and internationally and has been included in exhibits at the Griffin Museum, the Center for Fine Art Photography, A. Smith Gallery, Photo NOLA, the Wichita Falls Museum of Art, Foley Gallery, Photo Place Gallery, Overture Center for the Arts, the Von Liebig Art Center of the Naples Art Association, The Gala Awards and more.
