Susan Muniak

BiographySusan Muniak moved to Washington, DC, in the mid-1980s to begin a second career in photography. After working at a local photo lab, she became a photographer at National Journal. There, she gained entrée to members of Congress as well as hundreds of government employees. She also went in search of people in the community who were the heartbeat of the city. Later, she began to freelance. This allowed her time to pursue her documentary work, which she considers her most honored time behind a lens. Unfortunately, a 2003 fire in San Diego where she had relocated destroyed her entire photography collection, but she still closes her eyes and sees the thousands of beautiful faces of DC.
