At last count, she's been to 5 continents and lived in 5 different countries- she's travelled and taken photographs in at least 20 more. Along the way, she worked as a pianist, musical director, freelance journalist, visiting professor of Linguistics, ESL teacher, and software designer before turning to photography fulltime. Lee currently lives in Germany, where she writes books, takes photos, conducts photography workshops, and gives lectures on the history of American photography, when she's not busy trying to master doing all sorts of everyday expeditions in German -- but without that daily scoop of gelato. To celebrate the release of her book "Life on a Gelato Diet," Lee is offering a free companion photoblog with photos from Bolzano, Italy at http: //www.clfoto.net/gelatodiet/.
