ANIKA BURGESS
 

I’m a writer and photo editor with a particular expertise in archival photography. 

​

As a writer, I've been published in The New York Times and The New Yorker.

 

As a photo editor, I assign original photography around the world, and I scour archives to track down compelling historical images.

​

My non-fiction debut book about the boldest, wildest, most intriguing innovations in 19th-century photography, titled "Flashes of Brilliance: The Genius of Early Photography and How It Transformed Art, Science, and History", will be published by W.W. Norton in the summer of 2025.
