Trix Rosen is a New York based photojournalist whose fine art photography portfolios include images of a breast cancer survivor, portraits of gay men and lesbians that focus on gender identity and ambiguity, and the time-worn beauty of historic architectural landmarks and Jewish cemetery tombstones.

"My instinct has always been to find the story at the heart of every project. I look to the deeply etched memories in the stones and structures with the same passion that I look to the defining gesture and moment of truth in my portraits and documentary essays."
