He has published more than fifteen books, including several collaborations with Rebecca Norris Webb, and has received numerous international awards, with work exhibited in major museums worldwide.
Jim Goldberg has spent over four decades developing an innovative and experimental documentary practice that blends photography, text, and long-term collaboration.
