My photographs examine the life of Sylvia DeWolf Ostrander (1841-1925).  Our story begins with a small trunk abandoned on a New York City Street.  I utilize the primary materials which remain from her life, haunt the places she has been, read her journals, wear her clothing, and listen to her with intent and empathy, to photograph her life lived long ago in the present.  I imagine backwards, an apparition in her bygone era, and she visits me in the present in my dreams.  The photographs are traces of our life together.  The photographs on the site represent a small sample from a much larger body of work.
