About the Creator
Nancy Egan

A storyteller based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, I explore narrative with stories and composed images that incorporate a mix of artifacts including clothing, masks, folk art, and assorted talismans. In stories ranging from memoir to fable, I engage the imagination of my audience, to make them smile or sigh with recognition. For the last ten years I have pursued my interest in photography at the Santa Fe Photographic Workshops, Maine Media, Los Angeles Center for Photography and Santa Fe Community College. While I came to photography late, I have been a storyteller for my entire career in marketing communications collaborating with internationally recognized architects and designers on books, articles, brochures, and websites.
