Juror Russell Lord is the Freeman Family Curator of Photographs at the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA). Lord previously held positions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Yale University Art Gallery.

His recent publications include: Looking Again: Photography at the New Orleans Museum of Art (2018), Gordon Parks: The Making of an Argument (2013), Edward Burtynsky: Water (2013), "The Treachery of Images: Photo-Unrealism" in Photorealism: Beginnings to Today (2014). Lord's recent exhibitions include: Photography, Sequence, and Time (2012-13); Ten Years Gone (2015); and Something in the Way: A Brief History of Photography and Obstruction (2016-2017). Much of his research focuses on the relationships between photography and other visual media.
