Shifter: Dispatches Sarah Leen

Shifter Media

Sarah Leen is a mentor, editor, consultant, board member, advisory council member, director of photography, founder, and a very, very accomplished photographer. She is also a pioneer. First female winner of the College Photographer of the Year, sixteen assignments for National Geographic--including five covers--and titles of editor and director of photography at National Geographic where she was the first female to attain this position. You could say she owns a resume made of stone. Her insight into the life of a working pro, the amount of research done on stories and the beauty of the edit and sequence of photography books are all on tap.
