Rebecca-Thank you for sharing your story. I am a fine art photographer myself and immediately recognized the photographs you were talking about because we studied Marsha Burns in college at AI.MN.( I have my BFA in photography) I remember that specific body of work and recall being told something about these kids being homeless or abandoned/neglected. Now I am wondering how many more of these kids were exploited. I myself had a creepy incident happen when I interned with a famous photographer here in MN. He photographed me in the woods which was fine but then gave me a "gift" afterwards. He gave me a short photographic book that had german text next to each picture so I had to use a word translator to understand it. The entire book ended up bring a metaphor for a sexual encounter a man was having with a giant vagina. I wondered how this could be something he thought "I could learn from". (thats what he told me) Now I wonder to this day if I am going to run into that photograph he took of me at a gallery or if I'll run into him at an artist talk again. My experience is obviously not traumatic like yours but I have never told anyone for fear of judgment because he is so famous and I feel like I would be judged instead of him if I said anything. There were other conversations that we had that were inappropriate but I was really naive and innocent in college when I interned with him so I didn't notice the red flags at the time. Sorry for rambling but I thought I'd share. Thank you again for being so vulnerable.

As a fellow survivor, thank you for sharing your story Rebecca. I can relate to you with your nightmares… they’re horrible and happen the same way over and over again. What’s wild though is yours are eerily similar to mine. I.e., never leaving high school and repeating it, etc. I also have constant nightmares in this “dream map” of places I grew up in about trains, getting lost, trying to get home, being terrified, and always being alone. The difference for me is when I get on the train, it goes over this same bridge I used to travel over and the tracks collapse into water with sharks and whales every single time. I also know I’m dreaming sometimes. It’s horrible. I have them all the time, and I can’t believe anyone else has these dreams too. I also struggle to connect to people and feel like i say inappropriate things.. Sorry for rambling, but this was really healing for me to hear. Thank you.
