Julie Larsen Maher
Julie began her career with WCS as Creative Director of Publications in 1991 and changed jobs in 2005 to Staff Photographer. Julie is just the sixth person (and first female) in the 110-year history of the organization to be named Staff Photographer. Now she uses digital photography to bring to life WCS programs from around the world - both in the images she takes and those given to her from WCS field-based conservation staff. Every day, Julie works with some of the world's leading scientists and animal experts to plan and take the photos for WCS. Being staff photographer for WCS allows her the "perfect blend of art and science," as she chronicles the wildlife and the people at its five wildlife parks by taking pictures. Her digital photographs and the stories that go with them represent remarkable, behind-the-scenes access to over 16,000 animal residents and their caregivers. WCS field conservationists work with Julie to capture and communicate pictures from their programs at international locations. Through these images that reflect the diversity of faraway lands, she has loved and learned about these beautiful and remote places, and why conserving them is of global importance.
