Whitney Browne

Host Traven Rice speaks with Whitney Browne, an experimental and commercial photographer whose work explores themes of movement and gesture as reflections of mental states.

Best known for her involvement in the dance community, she currently works in New York City and Los Angeles.

She has spent the last decade developing her own experimental movement photography methods, working to build a visual language between photography and performance.

Browne joins host Traven Rice to talk about witnessing modern dance master Paul Taylor working with his dance troupe during the last years of his life, her many hours spent working with and documenting Ray and the people at Ray's Candy Shop in the East Village (which is now a book of portraits ready for a publisher) and photographing her own family, capturing them in the midst of movement - her grandmother, mother and sister are all dancers.
