Bio

Barbara Ramos is a photographer who was born in New York City and moved to Los Angeles with her family at the age of six. She received a BFA in photography at the San Francisco Art Institute and a master’s degree in Interdisciplinary Creative Arts from San Francisco State in 1973. She photographed avidly in the 1970s but switched careers to start a handcrafted jewelry business and raise a family, packing away her negatives and taking a nearly fifty-year hiatus from the medium. Her work was rediscovered and digitized during the pandemic, gaining acclaim online and in the fine arts space. She lives in San Francisco with her husband, Joe Ramos.
