Cindy Sherman was born in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, 1954. She is a well known American photographer known for her abstract self-portraits. While she was enrolled at Buffalo State College, she was inspired by a man she had been studying with, Barbara Jo Revelle. She taught Cindy to learn to, "just take pictures." Most of her works are usually photographed of herself dressed up in various costumes.
I am inspired by this woman because she seems to find beauty in herself. She can take a photograph of something that is totally unattractive but make it beautiful because we know her motive for taking it. All of her photos are interesting and edgy and they make me want to keep looking more.
