"There are many paths to a career as a photojournalist. If you can't find an internship or a job, or if you are stuck in a job you are bored with, how do you reach your maximum potential when no one wants your work?
Karen Ducey’s career has spanned from freelancer to full time newspaper staffer, from the Bering Sea to Indianapolis, and back again. She will address the difficulties of freelancing, starting a photo column, and pursuing projects your employers don’t want. Making your career happen instead of waiting for the phone to ring. The answers are found in living your life. Follow your instincts and be true to yourself.
