Live: Photographer Annie Griffiths at Syracuse University

One of the first women photographers to work for National Geographic, Annie Griffiths has photographed on six of the world’s seven continents during her illustrious career. She has worked on dozens of magazine and book projects for the Society, including stories on Lawrence of Arabia, Baja California, Galilee, Petra, Sydney, New Zealand and Jerusalem.
