Bridget Conn earned her BFA in Photography from Tulane University in 2000, and her MFA from the University of Georgia in 2003, focusing in Photography, Mixed Media, and Installation. Throughout the 2000s she taught at numerous colleges in Georgia, and was a member of the Stillmoreroots artist collective based in Swainsboro. There she taught at East Georgia College and focused her efforts into arts education for rural areas, including programs with the regionally-renowned Gallery RFD. The mountains eventually called her to Asheville, North Carolina in the fall of 2009, where she currently spreads her time among teaching, arts writing, design, and creating art. Her main efforts are concentrated on The Asheville Darkroom, where she serves as Co-Director and instructor for this upcoming photographic arts center seeking to become a non-profit organization.
