Reception at 3:30pm

A conversation with photography editor and author Anika Burgess about her new book

Flashes of Brilliance: The Genius of Early Photography and How it Transformed Art, History, and Science

Writing with verve and an eye for compelling details, Burgess explores how photographers uncovered new vistas, including catacombs, cities at night, the depths of the ocean, and the surface of the moon.

An elegantly written history that speaks to an immutable human desire to pursue knowledge, to create something beautiful, to record a moment in time. It’s also a lot of fun. —The Washington Post
