Andrew Lichtenstein: Biography

The True Cost of Prison

Andrew Lichtenstein, a native of New York City who currently resides in Brooklyn, is a documentary photographer who works on long-term stories of social concern. Lichtenstein's work on prisons and incarceration has appeared in books, newspapers, and magazines, including U.S. News and World Report, Time, and the New York Times. His series of photographs titled "Witness to an Execution" were inspired by a Sound Portraits radio documentary of the same name that aired on NPR's All Things Considered and won a Peabody Award in 2000.

In 1999, his photographs appeared in a previous Moving Walls series, and in 2000 he received a Soros Justice Fellowship from the Open Society Institute.
