The Donegal Pictures by Rachel Giese
Seventy-nine duotone photographs of remote Irish-speaking farming and sheepherding communities; Introduction by Ciaran Carson
Rachel Giese (now Rachel Brown) was born in New York City in 1936, but her family moved around a good bit so she grew up all over the country. She studied photography as a private student of Melissa Shook at MIT in 1976, but is largely self-taught. Brown began traveling to Ireland in the late 1970s, drawn to the light, the weather, and the history. Wake Forest University Press published The Donegal Pictures in 1987. Her other works include Sweeney's Flight (as Rachel Giese, 1992) with poems from Nobel Prize-winner Seamus Heaney, Solstice (as Rachel Brown, 2002) with a foreword by poet Mary Oliver, and various exhibitions and articles.
