1. How did Annie Liebovitz’s photography change over the life of her career? (5 points)

Anne became very interested in various artistic activities and began to devote herself to writing and music in high school. After graduating from high school, she enrolled at the San Francisco art institute where she studied painting and met her teacher, Sasha Michelle, who had a profound influence on her art career. While continuing to learn her photography skills, Anne also took on a variety of part-time jobs, such as working for several months in Gibbs, Israel, in 1969. After returning to the United States in 1970, Anne joined the fledgling rolling stone magazine as a freelance photographer. In 1973, publisher Jane Wenner promoted her to chief photographer. By the time Anne left office in 1983, her ten-year photographic career at the magazine had produced a large number of delicate and intimate portraits of famous people under her hand, which shaped the precise style of the rolling stone magazine. During her time at the rolling stone, Anne's work has influenced countless magazines since.

I think Annie Liebovitx is a photographer that owned the ability to handle all the style of photograph. After looking at several of her work, I think rather than focus on one sepecific sytle, she does not have a steadfast style for all of her images. It seems like she keep trying new stuff and develope different skills all the time in her carrer which I feels suprsose and engage. Moreover, she statr have the intrest in phorograph since highschool. It impress that she actually did not ever give up on the things she love. It is something that I should learn from her because I always shift my mind and not sure about what I like and what I want to do in the future. Overall, she is a great photographer and also a real life modle that I should always respect.
