Biography [ edit ]
Born in Minneapolis , Minnesota, in 1944, Davis studied at University of Colorado between 1962 and 1964, and at the University of Minnesota from 1964 to 1966. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1970, and in 1974 she began her career as an apprentice to Berenice Abbott .[1]
Davis' first exhibition hung at the International Center of Photography (New York City ) in 1979,[2] Robert Mapplethorpe .[3] Greenland , in 1986, she gave up photographing the human form, shifting her lens toward the monumental landscapes and cultural/architectural icons for which she is renowned.

Her prints appear in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Los Angeles County Museum of Art , the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art , and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston , among others.
