The Brown Sisters

2006-12-05
“Each year since 1975, Nicholas Nixon has made one black-and-white photograph of his wife, Beverly (Bebe) Brown, and her three sisters.

He always photographs the women in the same order from left to right: Heather, Mimi, Bebe, and Laurie.

Nixon selects only one photograph to represent the women each year.”.
