Lenore Browne started using a film camera after graduating high school. Although she later received business-related degrees, her passion lies with film photography and printing in a traditional darkroom. In her first attempt to display her photographs, Browne’s “Life Lines” was selected in a juried competition for exhibition at the Pen and Brush Gallery, in Greenwich Village, by Daile Kaplan, Vice President and Director of Photographs of the Swann Galleries, May 2009. Thereafter, she began documenting Harlem as it evolves through its Second Renaissance. Browne’s Harlem photographs have exhibited at Hamilton Landmark Galleries, Symphony Space, Harlem Hospital, Columbia University Barrie Russ, Harlem Fine Arts Show and the New York Public Library.
Browne is a founder and Board Member (President) of the Hamilton Heights Darkroom whose nonprofit mission is to provide photography and darkroom printing experience to youth and adults in the Harlem Community.
