Portrait of Imogen

The Making of the Film

	Meg Partridge always enjoyed Imogen's ascerbic wit and quick repartees growing up. But it was not until she was a teenager, when she was working as Imogen's 'spotter,' she began to see the breadth of Imogen's work, and understood Imogen's place in photographic history. Many years later, when Meg was rummaging around in her father's darkroom, she came across eight hours of audiotaped interviews of Imogen that her father had recorded. These interviews, recorded years earlier, became the basis of the film on Imogen Cunningham. Working out of a corner of her basement, Meg and her editor, Claude Ibrahimoff, created this film based on these personal and inspiring audiotapes.
