Best-known for her behind-the-scenes stills of Hollywood films, Mikki Ansin has travelled the world as a photojournalist for over 50 years. Her photos have been published in the International Herald Tribune, The New York Times, The London Times, TIME, LIFE, People and Paris Match.

Ansin’s career started as a photojournalist specializing in people, politics and film. Her career launched in the mid 1970s, when her photo of the little-known presidential candidate Jimmy Carter ran as a double-page spread in the New York Times Sunday magazine.

Eunice Kennedy Shriver hired Mikki Ansin to photograph her mother, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy, on her 90th birthday. This began a long collaboration between Mikki Ansin and the John F. Kennedy Library and multiple Kennedy family members. Allan Goodrich, Head Visual Archivist at the JFK Library, hired Mikki to write a book chapter about the Kennedy family's history with the press and their masterful use of imagery. He sent her to East Germany just after the Wall fell to celebrate the opening of a new John F. Kennedy Library in East Berlin, coinciding with the release of the book.

Mikki Ansin worked extensively with Merchant Ivory Productions, Gamma/Liaison Agency and Getty Images. She has also lectured at the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art and in Aix-en-Provence and Florence, Italy. Her work is collected by The Bibliotheque Nationale (Paris), the Kennedy Library, the United States Information Agency (USIA) and numerous private collectors. Some of her awards and achievements in photography include the American Society of Media Photographers “Best of 2012,” a CINE Golden Eagle, first place stills at the Deauville Film Festival, honors in the PS3 Prix de le Photographie Paris and a White House appointment to the Board of Governors of the USO.
