A Conversation With Photojournalist & Author of "The Second Half," Ellen Warner

A Conversation With Photojournalist & Author of "The Second Half," Ellen Warner

Ellen Warner's career as a photojournalist spans more than 50 years. Her photographs have been pub­lished in numerous newspapers and magazines and exhibited extensively. Over the years, she has developed a specialty of author portraits and has worked for most publishing houses in New York and London. She has also writ­ten travel articles, which have been published in The New York Times and Travel and Leisure in the U.S.A., and in The Traveller in the U.K. Ellen’s recently published book, The Second Half: Forty Women Reveal Life After Fifty (Brandeis University Press, March 8, 2022), explores, in photographic portraits and interviews, how the second half of life is experienced by women from many different cultures. From a French actress to a British novelist, from an Algerian nomad to a Saudi Arabian doctor, and an American politician, Ellen Warner traveled all over the world to interview women about their lives. She asked them what they learned in the first half that was helpful in the second, and what advice they would give to younger women. Their revealing and inspiring stories are enlightening for all readers, and are illustrated by Warner’s stunning portraits, which tell their own stories. I wrote a review of Ellen's excellent book for The Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/books/2022/03/04/second-half-advice-ellen-warner/. As I wrote in my review, "Paring away the less essential, being generous, practicing gratitude, staying in the present moment and finding purpose are ways of living urged repeatedly [by the women interviewed for] the book."
