Meg Ward and I are on the phone. It’s early morning for me, but Meg has been up for hours already. Her children are napping. Light is streaming through the window where I sit in Hampshire County, West Virginia, and I picture her, a similarly tall woman, sitting in similar window light in Pocahontas County. She says something to me, humbly, that I can relate to: “I’m not a big talker. Photography is a lot like speaking, for me. If I haven’t made a photograph, then I haven’t said anything that day.”
