Ginny Dixon has spent the last 20 years working as a photojournalist for national magazines and newspapers. She is a graduate of California State University at Long Beach where she earned a bachelors degree in photojournalism. Her first job was with the Los Angeles Times, where she had the extraordinary privilege of being a member of two staffs who captured the Pulitzer Prize; once for coverage of the Los Angeles riots after the Rodney King Trial and once for the 6.1 Northridge earthquake.

In 1996 she returned to her home state of Florida where she opened her own photography business.

Her work since then has covered many subjects all of which share common elements of reaction, resonance and reflection. Her recent work has concentrated on inspirational subjects such as professional athletes, breathtaking destinations, and her images of the PGA and LPGA won her the International Network of Golf Photographer of the Year in 1999.

Ginny refuses to be categorized as a specialist on any one subject (even if other people do) and is happiest when a week's work includes photojournalism, commercial photography balanced with left of center art house photography.

She teaches photography at Miami Ad School on South Beach.

In her spare time Ginny likes killing orchids in her native Florida, barbecuing, painting really badly and sculpting rather well.

She also raises funds for the research and development of an early detection test for ovarian cancer, of which she is a survivor.

She is proud to be a coal miner's granddaughter and loves to tell embellished stories about her southern grandmother, Mamie Winchester. But pictures speak louder than words--so please browse through some of her work.
