KF Susan Wood Event Post

Susan Wood knows about capturing the essence of the human spirit. The international trailblazing photographer and journalist, whose work has spanned six decades, joins us for a special Knowledge Friday that bridges our Summer and our Fall Exhibitions.  Join us and hear from an influential feminist who loves to laugh and who has had a substantial career in the editorial and advertising world.  Susan will be joined in conversation by April Gornik and will share stories from her invaluable experiences. After the talk, there will be a brief Q&A.

From her early days in the iconic “Mad Men” era of Madison Avenue to becoming the winner of Art Director and Clio awards, Susan’s work has become a legacy of her curiosity and determination. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries worldwide. In addition to being a strong voice of the feminist movement, her editorial and advertising work was seen regularly in magazines like Vogue, Look, Life, People, and New York Magazine. Her ability to capture the essence of human vitality led to her work with cultural icons like John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, Betty Friedan, Norman Mailer, and many more. Her knowledge, experience, and energetic spirit are a gift to any aspiring photojournalist and storyteller.

Knowledge Fridays, held the first Friday of each month, highlight outstanding East End locals with various backgrounds and careers. The program allows the audience to meet and learn about dynamic, inspiring, and fascinating East Enders. It is a monthly program open to the public and free to our members.
