We are thrilled to invite you to celebrate Women's History Month and the publication of I'm So Happy You Are Here: Japanese Women Photographers from the 1950s to Now. This is an expansive and long-overdue survey featuring the untold stories of Japanese Women Photographers. Smithsonian calls it "a captivating look at the diverse voices of Japanese women photographers over seven decades."
Contributing Photo Historian Carrie Cushman will discuss the project and share some historical moments from the history of Japanese photography and women's contributions.
