Sarah Small was born in 1979 into a family of musicians. Fueled by her constant curiosities and fascination with entangling herself in human drama, Sarah spent her high-school years wandering the streets of her hometown of Washington, D.C., always equipped with her Pentax K1000. Sarah was trained at the Rhode Island School of Design. Sarah’s work explores the unlikely interactions born when dissociated characters are brought together into the same space. Small’s work has appeared in publications including Vogue, Life, and The New York Times. Her images have been exhibited in the U.S. and internationally. She has been the recipient of numerous awards, and was recently named by American Photo as one of the “ Top 13 Emerging Photographers” working today. When not photographing, Sarah sings and arranges vocal scores with her Balkan a Cappella quartet, Black Sea Hotel.
