Samantha Appleton has worked on stories as varied
as the conflict in Iraq, Malaria in Africa and
fishing communities of Maine. Most of her
projects are self-motivated and concentrate on
the social and political consequences of conflict
and neglect. She began her journalism career as a
writer and became a fulltime photographer after
assisting James Nachtwey in 1999-2000. Since then
she has been named one of the "30 Under 30"
photographers featured in PDN, received the Kodak
Professional Award, attended the 2005 World Press
Master Class, and won first place from Pictures
of the Year for her September 11th feature. Her
primary clients are TIME magazine and the New
Yorker magazine. She lives in New York City and
Portland, ME.
