Alex Harris is one of the most important and prolific photographers living in North Carolina. He is also a nationally-recognized writer, teacher, and documentarian. Harris graduated from Yale University in 1971 and was a student of Walker Evans. His photography projects have taken him to New Mexico, North Carolina, Alaska, and Cuba, and he often photographs people in everyday scenarios while rethinking the concept of ordinariness.

Harris founded the Center for Documentary Photography at Duke University in 1980. He has exhibited at museums including the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; the High Museum of Art, Atlanta; the International Center of Photography, New York; and the Nasher Museum of Art, Durham.
