Alison Bert
Alison draws on her background in music and journalism to capture the spirit of people and places, distilling her subjects to convey the most striking elements. She started photography 10 years ago as a reporter for The Journal News and continued as a photojournalist for AOL Patch Media. She has been displaying her work in juried exhibitions since 2013, including exhibits at the Salmagundi Club in Manhattan, the Upstream Gallery in Hastings, the Lazarus Gallery in New Rochelle, and the Garrison Art Center. She does her own printing using archival inks on fine art paper.
In the previous century, Alison was a classical guitarist on the music faculty of Syracuse University, performing solo and chamber music on four continents. She earned a doctorate in music from the University of Arizona, was a Fulbright Scholar in Spain, and studied in a master class with Andrés Segovia.
Alison moved to Hastings-on-Hudson in 2009.
