I don&#8217;t think my photographs look anything like hers. The only similarity is perhaps that both of us were fascinated by people who are marginal. I think her photographs are graphically very different; they are more direct, but that she is a distant observer. My photographs are more emotional and perhaps less graphically direct. But I repeat, I think she was a great photographer. When people compare us, they do it because we&#8217;re both women.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>See more photos<a href=\"http:\/\/www.maryellenmark.com\/text\/magazines\/photo%20metro\/908F-000-002.html\"> and read the interview here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Legendary street photojournalist and LAMPP participant Mary Ellen Mark, in her SoHo studio\/library on Halloween 1991.
