Mark Steinmetz lives in Athens, Georgia, with his wife, the photographer Irina Rozovsky, and their daughter. Together they run The Humid, an educational space committed to the practice of ambitious photography that provides workshops, artist lectures, and portfolio reviews. The stated goal of The Humid is to, 'to share our love for the medium with a global community and create a forum for intersecting visions, generations, cultures, and geographies.'
Over twenty books of Steinmetz's photographs have published, mostly by Nazraeli Press and STANLEY/BARKER, and his work has been presented in museums and galleries throughout the United States and mainland Europe. In 1994 Steinmetz was the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and participated in Light Work’s Artist-in-Residence Program. Steinmetz has taught photography at several prestigious institutions, including Harvard, Sarah Lawrence College, Emory University, Yale School of Art, and University of Hartford where he is currently a critic.
Steinmetz's work can be found in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Hunter Museum of American Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
“Steinmetz has persisted in working with film, and in black-and-white, because he ‘prefers the way film describes the light’.” The Guardian
