Bio

Annie Tiberio is a fine art photographer living in Amherst, Massachusetts. Her background and training in science support her passion for photography and from this combination she creates images that reveal what she feels about the natural world. She exhibits her work in galleries and museums across the country. Annie has been focusing her camera on all corners of Vermont since moving there in 2005. Her award-winning photos have been published in two editions of the best selling Sierra Club book, Mother Earth — Through the Eyes of Women Photographers and Writers, as well as numerous other publications.

Since 1979, Annie has put special emphasis on teaching photography. With training in both science and education, her years as a school teacher and coordinator of environmental education programs for Massachusetts Audubon Society provided a foundation for teaching photography for the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the National Wildlife Federation, among many other institutions in New England and beyond.

Annie tours nationally with a slide show depicting her solo wilderness camping treks, called Death Valley, Okefinokee and Beyond.  Her other touring slide shows are from her travels to East Africa:  Come With Me to Tanzania  and  Touring Kenya.
