Dana Gluckstein

Dana Gluckstein has photographed iconic figures including Nelson Mandela, Mikhail Gorbachev, Desmond Tutu, and Muhammad Ali, as well as award-winning advertising campaigns for clients such as Apple and Toyota. Her portraits are held in the permanent collections of museums such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. Her book, DIGNITY: In Honor of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and the associated international museum exhibition, DIGNITY: Tribes in Transition, have received international acclaim and awards.

DIGNITY, in association with Amnesty International for their 50th anniversary, helped create the “tipping point” for President Obama to adopt the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. The U.S. tour began in January 2015 after three years of touring European museums. Gluckstein is currently working in association with Amnesty International USA on a DIGNITY campaign to end discrimination and sexual assaults of Native American Women.
