Photographer Theron Humphrey
To celebrate the end of another fantastic CreativeMornings year we thought we’d continue last year’s tradition and turn the mic to you, our audience. We sent out an open call for anyone interested to apply to speak at CreativeMornings this month in New York City, London, Milan or Geneva.
Here in New York, Theron Humphrey was one of the speakers who took the stage to speak on the past year of his life. Spending a year, Theron created an immense body of work documenting the lives of others to be opened at a later date.
About the speaker

Theron is so inspiring; someone who has garnered attention through social media (specifically Instagram) yet constantly finds meaning through his photo essays. This talk makes me think about the "anonymous" people I see every day.
