Ruby LaToya Frazier is an award-winning photographer. She was born in Braddock, Pennsylvania in 1982. Braddock is a rather run-down and poverty-stricken town. Braddock had a major influence on the kind of subjects she wanted to photograph. Frazier works in photography, video, and performance to show visual representations of industrialism, rustbelt revitalizations, environmental justice, healthcare inequality, and communal history. She shoots photos that open people's eyes of what is really going on in the world. However, she is currently an Associates Professor of Photography at the School of Art Institute of Chicago, though she has previously held other academic and cultural positions, including positions at Yale University of Art. Ruby LaToya Frazier has several pieces of popular and recognized work. Some of her most famous collections include The Notion of Family, Gray Area, and Flint Lives Matter. My personal favorite photograph shot by her is a photo from the collection Fli
