  Weifenbach was born in New York City and raised in Washington, D.C. She graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park in 1978. Since then she has lived in New Mexico, California and again in Washington, D.C., and now lives in Paris.
  
  Weifenbach photographs plants and animals and "uses the richness of gardens and parks as the site for her landscape images". Bookmaking is central to her artistic practice. Parr and Badger include In Your Dreams (1997) in the second volume of The Photobook: A History.
