Sarah Hermanson Meister is a Curator in the Department of Photography at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Frances Benjamin Johnston (American, 1864–1952) achieved acclaim as a photo journalist and studio photographer based in Washington, D.C., and is recognized as a pioneer for women in photography. LaToya Ruby Frazier is currently an Associate Professor of Photography at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and is represented by Gavin Brown’s Enterprise in New York.
Johnston's photographs show students attending lectures or practicing manual skills, and they are so deliberately posed and choreographically distributed that they appear suspended in space; the scenes resemble theater photos of the fin de siècle, or early film stills.--Luc Sante "New York Times: Book Review"
