Sidsel Ramson: A Photographic Odyssey

Sidsel Ramson was born in Norway in 1937. She received her education in Copenhagen, at the University of California, Berkeley, and in Paris. Her special gift for quickly bonding with people has allowed her to take photos in situations where others would have been refused; she has an ability to glide in and out of people's daily lives, without disturbing them. She works in the tradition of "concerned photography" established by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson and David Seymour. She currently lives and works in France and Denmark.
