curriculum vitae
Carol Allen Storey is an award-winning photojournalist specialising in chronicling complex humanitarian and social
issues. Her imagery illuminating their dignity and quest for survival reflects the unique trust and respect she engenders
with her subjects.
“My images are intimate, about issues and citizens I deeply care about. I believe photographs may not be capable
of doing the moral work for us, but they can trigger the process of social consciousness.”
Storey’s work has been exhibited and published extensively. Installations of her photography appear in corporate
HQs and commercial premises. In October 2009 she was appointed a UNICEF ambassador for photography.
In 2000 Carol graduated Central St. Martins, Master Photography Programme with distinction. Storey’s further
degrees include an MA at Columbia University and a BA at Syracuse University. A native New Yorker, Storey resides in
London
