EXPERIENCE
Parker left a career in banking in 1995 to pursue her passion for photography. Her formal entry into the field was as an apprentice to Harry H. Lunn, Jr., a pioneer art dealer who played a pivotal role in creating and developing public and private appreciation for photography as a collectible fine art.

She went on to work for New York photography dealer Howard Greenberg. Soon after she joined in 1999, she served as Director of Gallery 292, the intimate offshoot of Greenberg's main gallery. During the five years she spent at Gallery 292 and Howard Greenberg Gallery, she curated close to thirty exhibitions and managed dozens of artists and estates represented by the galleries.

In 2004, motivated by the opportunity to offer clients a more focused and personal approach, Parker set off on her own, establishing herself as a private dealer.

In 2009 she moved to her current space on Madison Avenue between 65th and 66th streets where her office and gallery are located.
