Michael George (b. 1988) is a photographer, writer, and people lover based out of Brooklyn. Through his work, he strives to tell stories of our common humanity through travel, culture, and the underrepresented. George’s stories have been published by National Geographic, The New York Times, WIRED, and dozens of other publications. He has been a guest lecturer at Yale University and has taught workshops in various locations, from the coast of California to onboard an Amtrak train. Most recently, he worked with Adobe and Passion Passport in Patagonia, Chile to help two students explore the effects of climate change in Torres del Paine National Park. If you meet him, he will inevitably take your portrait.
In this panel, moderated by Alison Zavos, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Feature Shoot, we’ll talk to photographers Shaniqwa Jarvis, Dustin Cohen, Michael Rubenstein and Michael George, who each turned personal projects into paying gigs.
