About

Alice Proujansky is a documentary photographer and writer covering women and labor: birth, work, motherhood and identity.

She is now working on Hard Times are Fighting Times, a project about the legacy of radical activism in her family; photo essays about culturally-responsive maternal healthcare; and photography and visual literacy workshops.

Alice has taught photography since 2002 and was the lead curriculum writer for On Sight, Aperture’s photography and visual literacy curriculum. Her first book, Go Photo! An Activity Book for Kids was published by Aperture in 2016.

Alice grew up in Greenfield, MA. She graduated from Northfield Mount Hermona and New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts Department of Photography and Imaging and lives in Brooklyn with her husband, son and daughter.
