About

Umbrage Editions, based in New York City, produces high-quality visual books, traveling exhibitions, and multimedia projects, including, most recently, educational guides, CD-ROMs, an online chat series, award-winning websites, a theater play, and a PBS documentary film. Umbrage Editions creates content-rich products, bringing them from their initial conception to development and final production. Umbrage projects vary in subject matter from classic photojournalism to cutting-edge art, from pop culture to global human rights, from the closets of drag queens to the runways of fashion.

Exhibitions by Umbrage have been shown at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.; The Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, AZ; The Fashion Institute of Technology, New York; The Dayton Art Institute, OH; The Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, FL; Parc de la Villette, Paris; and the Fototeca de Cuba, Havana, among other venues.

Umbrage books and artists have been featured in publications including Harper's Magazine, Flavorpill, Conde Nast Traveler, LIFE.com, The Paris Review online, National Geographic, MSNBC, The New York Times Lens Blog, Photo District News (PDN), The Huffington Post, PBS NewsHour, NY1 Television, and Gothamist.


Recent projects include Tent Life: Haiti, a book of photographs documenting the Haitian landscape and people post the 2010 earthquake by award-winning photojournalist Wyatt Gallery; Fambul Tok, a collaborative effort by peace-activists John Caulker and Libby Hoffman, filmmaker Sara Terry, and writer/activist Ishmael Beah that depicts with text and images the eponymous grass-roots movement of truth-telling and reconciliation in Sierra Leone; and The Pearl, a children's book written by Nan Richardson and illustrated by Alexandra Young that recounts the Cinderella story of Count Nicolas Cheremeteff and serf girl Praskovia whose love triumphed over class boundaries in 18th Century Russia.
