Olga Ginzburg is a Belarusian-American photographer based in New York City. With an interest in open-ended narrative and its potential for subtle and layered meaning, her work explores notions of place, identity, home, community, and biculturalism. A graduate of the City College of New York, her work has twice been included in the Triennial at the Alice Austen House Museum (2019 and 2023). An editorial photographer, her clients include The New York Times, The Financial Times, Bloomberg, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, NPR, among others.
Olga’s work has been featured on ABC’s Eyewitness News 7, exhibited in Photoville, and in 2025 was part of Dear New York, a monumental photo installation by Humans of NY in Grand Central Terminal. Currently, a selection of her photographs can be seen at the Staten Island Museum’s Triennial exhibition, Here You Are. She is working on her first documentary film— an extension of the intimate work she has been making on Staten Island since 2016.
