Nancy Lee Katz (June 12, 1947 - March 22, 2018) was an American photographer.[1] Katz "dedicated a period of 25 years to a private project of photographing people, mainly in the arts, whose work she respected. She kept the pictures to herself, never offering them for sale, or for exhibit, or for publication."[2]
