Sally Mann is a controversial American photographer born in 1951 who lives isolated on a family farm in Virginia. She was inspired to photography by her father who gave her her first camera at age 17. Mann is known for her black and white photos of her children, often depicting them acting in mature ways or with serious facial expressions. Her work has been considered disturbing or even child pornography by some, but Mann says she is simply capturing motherly affection in a different style.
