About — Erin Menatian

Menatian received her BS in Education and Human Development from the University of Rhode Island, and her MFA in Photography/Media Arts from Maine Media College. Her work has been exhibited at galleries and museums throughout the U.S., including the Minneapolis Photo Center, the Griffin Museum of Photography, and the New Britain Museum of American Art.
