Donna
Ferrato is a renowned photojournalist whose seminal work on domestic
violence opened up – for the first time – the hidden world that
people did not want to confront. The corresponding book, Living
with the Enemy,
Aperture 1991, went through four printing The mission of her “I am
Unbeatable” campaign is to save lives, to end suffering, to lead
young women away from the cycle of domestic violence to freedom. Her
work was featured on the cover of Time twice and then she took the
story into the White House for a private meeting with Hillary
Clinton.
Donna
has evolved from her photojournalism roots and has become an artist
whose subject is where she calls home. Anyone who runs across her on
these downtown streets can tell you, she is seldom without her Leica.

Michael
Imperioli, actor, writer and TriBeCa resident, said, “Donna Ferrato
miraculously manages to capture TriBeCa from two completely distinct
points of view at the same time. She can stand at a distance with the
objective eye of a compassionate, awestruck outsider as well as take
us inside the heart of our big city hamlet with the love and care
that only a native could possibly possess.”
