This event has ended.

For more than two decades Diana Walker was the White House photographer for Time magazine. She has masterfully documented 5 administrations, from Gerald Ford to Bill Clinton, photographing the nation's First Ladies and the key political players in each administration. Her first photograph appeared in Time in 1976, launching her career as a contract photographer for the magazine in 1979. In 1984 she became one of two White House photographers to cover the Reagan and Bush administrations. At the beginning of George Bush's re-election campaign, Walker was the first photojournalist granted access to exclusively shoot presidential life beyond the scripted formalities of public life.
