Earlier this month, Cambridgeport’s Family Liaison, Kristen Emack, was among 180 other scientists, writers, scholars and artists from across the nation awarded with a
Guggenheim Fellowship. Honorees are selected based on prior achievements and exceptional future promise. Kristen is one of the 11 honorees from Massachusetts.
Her ongoing series
Cousins, has received international exposure and captures more than a decade of meaningful moments between her daughter and three nieces, all fully or partially first generation girls of color growing up in Cambridge. Kristen works closely with the
Cambridge Community Foundation, supporting their work through her creativity behind the lens.
Congratulations Kristen on this amazing achievement!
