About
Former public defender Sara Bennett has spent the past thirteen years photographing women convicted of homicide and sentenced to life in prison in New York State. In her long-term project Looking Inside. Women with Life Sentences, Bennett traces their lives across time and space: inside prison walls, in their post-incarceration bedrooms, and as they reenter the outside world after decades behind bars. Through intimate portraits and personal ephemeraPolaroids, letters, drawings, and handwritten notesBennett creates a striking reminder of the complexity and humanity of women who are, and have always been, far more than the single act that sent them to prison for life. The publication is complemented by a powerful afterword by Judith Clark, who served thirty-eight years in prison and is now director of the Survivors Justice Project.
