Rebecca Smeyne is a documentary photographer, mostly known for her dynamic images of music scenes for the Village Voice's Sound of the City blog and Spin Magazine. She also documents a wide variety of cultural events for the Voice and other clients such as Vice, NYmag.com, and Anthem, and also does creative event documentation for corporate clients including Adidas and Scion. Rebecca has shot all over the world, sometimes traveling with bands, other times on her own, from China to Cuba, to Japan, Mexico and the Philippines. Her character-driven, graphic and colorful photos have garnered a growing number of honors, such as a Society of Publication Designers Finalist Medal and inclusion in the 25th American Photo Annual. Her work has been included in many group shows, and there is a long-term solo installation, entitled "DIY or Die" currently on display at Other Music in New York, which travels to Melbourne, Australia later this year. Rebecca is a graduate of Columbia University.
