    About this photograph

    Mary J. Blige was the first female and youngest artist signed to Uptown Records when she began her career in 1988 as a background singer. The singer, songwriter and actress released her debut album What's The 411? in 1992. Featured on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list, her highly successful solo act paved the way for her transition into film and television. Along with nine Grammys she is also an Emmy award winner and was nominated for two Academy Awards. She was the first person ever to be nominated for acting and songwriting in the same year. Photographed by Deborah Feingold on April 4, 1997.

    About the photographer

    Deborah Feingold began her photography career in an unusual darkroom: a Boston prison cell, where she taught troubled youth in the early 1970s. This experience cemented her belief in the camera's power for self-expression and communication, laying the groundwork for her distinguished career. Moving to New York City in 1976, Feingold quickly rose to prominence with her iconic portraits of music legends such as Chet Baker, B.B. King, James Brown, Bono, and Madonna. Her ability to put subjects at ease resulted in intimate, enduring images that have appeared in Rolling Stone, Time, Newsweek, and The New York Times. Feingold's work, featured in her 2014 book "Music" and the PBS special "Icon: Music Through the Lens," continues to inspire and influence the world of music photography.
