Episode 41: Hannah Cooper McCauley, Fine Arts Instructor

In this episode, we feature TMI Fine Arts Instructor Hannah Cooper McCauley, who joined the TMI community 2016 and brings her talents of narrative photography to our school.

Her own photography has been exhibited in group and solo shows at various venues internationally, including the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the Vermont Center for Photography, Photo Beijing 2014, the 2014 Pingyao, China International Photography Festival, and has been published in Photo District News as well as Aint-Bad Magazine. She earned her Bachelors of Fine Arts degree at Jacksonville State University and her Masters of Fine Arts degree from Louisiana Tech University.

Hannah shares her diagnosis of a degenerative eye condition called Optic Nerve Head Drusen and how it has influenced and shaped much of her art. We also talk about her teaching philosophy, some of her students' favorite projects, and why analog photography continues to be important for students even as technology evolves.
