The Making of a Personal Project with Nancy Borowick

Nancy Borowick was busy hustling as a New York City-based freelance photographer when she learned her father had stage-4 pancreatic cancer. Her mother was already in treatment for stage-4 breast cancer so, with that news, she immediately knew that she needed to be with her parents to tell their story. Thus began her long-term personal project, Cancer Family, Ongoing. The New York Times soon asked to showcase the project, and it was then that everything changed.

In this session, Borowick spoke about her process in developing such a personal project, the lessons she learned, the things she wished she knew along the way and her strategy in taking this project public and into published realms.
