Congratulations to MEG artist Timothy Hyde!

The Board of Directors of Focus on the Story have announced the formation of a new advisory council, which will include Timothy Hyde, an award-winning fine art photographer and member of the Photography Initiative Advisory Committee for the National Gallery of Art. Other photographers selected to be on the advisory council include Kirth Bobb, a leading DC portrait and wedding photographer; Sharon Farmer, the Chief White House photographer in the Clinton administration; Carl Juste, an award-winning photojournalist at the Miami Herald; Elizabeth Cheng Krist, a former senior photo editor at National Geographic; and Lucian Perkins, an independent photographer and filmmaker who was a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner at the Washington Post.

Focus on the Story, an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization based in Washington, DC, was founded on the driving principle that photography can spark meaningful conversations at the intersection of policy, civic engagement and visual storytelling.
