Suzanne Camp Crosby specialized in creating thematically directed photographs, created by adding unexpected objects or people to mostly everyday scenes. Her artwork is often playful and witty, such as the juxtaposition of life-sized paper doll cut-outs of 1950s movie stars to real-life mundane household settings, as well as a wide selection of other artificial items placed into everyday vistas. As a visual storyteller, she continued to explore and experiment with ideas and themes throughout her lengthy career. Camp Crosby taught at HCC for over 35 years and played an instrumental role in the development of the photography program at the Ybor City Campus before she retired in 2015.
