Vivian Ronay
Vivian Ronay started life with a Brownie Kodak camera and a photography badge earned in the Girl Scouts. She began photography in earnest in the 1980s, landing a staff job at the Washington Times while freelancing for Washingtonian magazine and, occasionally, Vanity Fair, Vogue, GQ, etc. Her 20-year photographic love affair with Petra, Jordan, began in 1986. Ronay won the Sam Abell Scholarship at the Santa Fe Photo Workshops and the WHNPA Project grant of 2003. Based in Washington, D.C., Ronay now freelances, doing corporate (and editorial) portraits and the very occasional news event.
Ronay's exhibit, "The Bedouin Tribes of Petra", is currently on display at the Canadian Museum of Civilization in Ottawa until January 2007. The 50 image exhibit has traveled to 4 previous venues, in conjunction with the archeological show, 'Petra, Lost City of Stone.' Ronay won the Sam Abell scholarship and the Santa Fe Photo Workshops and the WHNPA Project grant of 2003 To see more photographs or get details on the exhibit, visit Ronay's web site at: www.petraphotos.com
