Ann Torrence


Biography

I'm based in Salt Lake City, where I co-lead Utah's largest photography group, PhotowalkingUtah, teach introductory photography and digital editing, and write about my adventures on my blog, Ann-alog.

I'm currently writing and photographing a book, U.S. Highway 89: the Character of the American West, about the historic 1,600-mile route from Mexico to Canada, and the seven national parks along the way.

My documentary photos explore the interplay of the human element and landscape; transformations of culture -- what is kept, lost, and reinvented over time; passionate people of any stripe, and; the idea of the great American West.
