• • Born in 1946 in Hazleton, Pennsylvania, Judith Joy Ross is a portraitist. She has created a body of black-and-white portraits using traditional photographic tools and subject matter. With her old-fashioned 8x10-inch view camera mounted on a tripod, she directly confronts her sitters, whether they are children or members of Congress. Ross has the ability to capture the humanity and vulnerability of her subjects. She is often acclaimed for the emotional acuity of her portraits.
• • Judith Ross uses an 8 x 10-inch camera and a process known as printing-out paper prints (which needs no enlarger) to produce highly defined negatives and prints with a wide range of gray tones. The paper is exposed to the negative in sunlight for a few minutes to a few hours. Later, Ross tones the prints shades of brown and gray. Consequently, Ross\'s portraits look deliberately antiquated and her work falls outside the mainstream of contemporary photographic portraiture. Her style is akin to that of early 20th-century photographers, such as Eugène Atget, Lewis Hine, and August Sander — — all major influences on Ross\'s • This extraordinary image was reproduced on premium stock in a book published during the 1990s.
