The Arts

Join Anne Havinga, Estrellita and Yousuf Karsh Chair of Photography; and James Leighton, curatorial research associate, Photography; for an in-depth look at “Elsa Dorfman: Me and My Camera.” Learn about the Cambridge photographer’s life through a selection of her large-format self-portraits made since 1980. Working with a 200-pound, 20 x 24 Polaroid camera, one of only a few in existence, Dorfman creates disarmingly informal photographs that radiate intimacy and warmth.
