Ep: 1788 Stacy Waldman Bass - Lightkeeper

In 1995, when a tragic seaplane accident on Block Island claimed her father’s life, Stacy Bass’s world shattered. She began to write as a way to process her excruciating grief, while gathering the pieces of his life through collected photographs. Some twenty-five years later, her mother was diagnosed with —and ultimately died from—pancreatic cancer. During her mother’s illness, she created a living tribute of images and words that built a community of support around her mother when she needed it most. By collecting and sharing photographs of her parents, she recognized how photographs serve not merely as records but as powerful portals into memory. Stacy is an author, artist and photographer. Her photography has been featured extensively in books and magazines including At Home (where she was lead photographer for more than 10 years), Garden Design, Luxe Interiors + Designs, House Beautiful, Elle Décor, Veranda, AD, Horticulture, Living Etc., British Homes & Gardens, The Wall Street Journal and many more.
