23 imagesCatherine Herrera is a local photographer with deep roots to San Francisco and the Bay Area, with a sustaining dedication to photography as an art and document of our times. Over 20 years, Catherine has worked as a photojournalist, exhibited her work in the U.S. and Mexico, and, most recently, has completed two cover photos for local authors. After a major needle aspiration injury at a local hospital to her right arm and immediately impacted her mobility, unable to work, Catherine moved her family to the only place she could afford since she could not stand, sit or walk for any period of time. She found a neighborhood of families, disabled, and artists. She documented her life during those few years, exhibiting in San Francisco City Hall while living in District 6 Tenderloin Neighborhood. #catherineherreraphotography
