Marsha Lynn Burns (born 1945) is an American photographer.

Early life and education

Burns was born in Seattle, Washington.[1] Between 1963 and 1965 she studied painting at the University of Washington and then continued her studies between 1967 and 1969 at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Her first experiences with photography came from a photo course she took in Seattle in 1963. And yet it would take another six years before she decided to dedicate herself fully to the medium of photography as her primary means of artistic expression.

Collections

Her work is included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art,[2] the Seattle Art Museum,[3] the Smithsonian American Art Museum,[1] the Museum of Contemporary Photography,[4] the Portland Art Museum,[5] the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Centre Pompidou[6] in Paris, and the Center for Creative Photography[7] at the University of Arizona in Tucson.
