Stacy Kranitz and Andrew Malan Milward on Writing and Photography Collaboration

Recorded Monday, May 18th, 2020

Photographer, Stacy Kranitz and writer, Andrew Malan Milward discussed their own collaborative project on Cock Fighting in Louisiana, the rich history of collaborative projects between photographers and writers, and the often blurred line between fictional and non-fictional works. This is one of the most common collaborations, but what is the best way for these two mediums to complement each other while retaining their own autonomy and voice individually? Kranitz is a current Guggenheim Fellow living in rural Eastern Tennessee, and her first monograph As it Was Give(n) to Me will be published by Twin Palms. Andrew Malan Milward is author of The Agriculture Hall of Fame, which was awarded the Juniper Prize for Fiction by the University of Massachusetts, and I Was a Revolutionary (HarperCollins, 2015), which was awarded the Friends of American Writers Literature Award.
