When Annie is not acting as “Commissioner”, she develops and creates large-scale portrait projects that transform the way we see and interact with people. Her work enlivens and infuses spaces (both real and virtual) with meaning and engagement.

As a result of her work with young people at Montefiore Children’s Hospital on the award-winning photo project “Not Defined By Diagnosis,” she saw a need for an organization whose mission is to continue to create such projects, broadening its scope and impact to address the needs of young patients. Made Visible Foundation came to life. Baseball As Good Medicine is a fund-raising arm - we tell our stories to allow young people to tell their stories.

Annie’s work has been shown widely, including at the United Nations, the Hebrew Home for the Aged, and is permanently installed at Mt. Sinai West, and has been commissioned by The Frick Collection for their Art of Observation project for medical education.
