The University of Georgia Special Collections Library’s special exhibit, “Seeking Intrinsic Essence, Whatever Direction: The Photography of Nancy Ellison,” features photographs of legendary celebrities. The pictures show a personal side of icons like Mick Jagger and Harrison Ford that you can’t see on the silver screen. The award-winning photographer behind the exhibit, Nancy Ellison, sat down with WUGA’s Havivah Saltz to explain how she captures those moments.
You can see Nancy Ellison’s photography on the second floor of the UGA Special Collections Library until December 23rd. The gallery is open from 8am to 5pm on weekdays, with extended hours until 7pm on Tuesday and Thursday.
