Anne C Godfrey writes about all things landscape. Areas of focus include the photographic representation of landscape, New Topographic photographers, portraiture and landscape, marine animals and marine ecologies and women’s issues in the design and construction of landscapes.

Godfrey’s three book series, Active Landscape Photography, discusses the diverse approaches to photography within the environmental design disciplines and the cultural implications of photographic representation.

She has received artist and research residencies at the Center for Creative Photography, SVA, Centrum, PLAYA, the Sitka Center, and the Fuller Center at Overlook.

Godfrey has won multiple awards throughout her career from the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) for her research and teaching.  She is an Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and a Fellow at the Center for Creative Photography.

She received her BA in American Studies, with honors and distinction in research, from Carleton College, Northfield, MN. After a series of interesting adventures, she went on to gain her MLA from the University of Oregon, Eugene, OR, winning the Honor Award for research from ASLA National and was recognized as the Graduate Honor Student by the Oregon Chapter of the ASLA.

Cross country travels inspire her work.
