Julie Glassberg is a French photographer based in Paris. After studying graphic design, she moved to New York to dedicate herself fully to her passion, photography. Her work explores cultural diversity, subcultures, underground scenes, and individuals living on the margins of society. For seven years, she collaborated regularly with The New York Times and, from 2011 to 2015, created the portraits for the weekly column Character Study alongside journalist Corey Kilgannon. Her photographs have also appeared in publications such as The New York Times Magazine, Le Monde, The Wall Street Journal, El País Semanal, Stern View, L’Équipe Magazine, ESPN, among others. She later spent a year in Japan developing new projects and collaborations with local artists, followed by a six-month residency at the Swatch Art Peace Hotel in Shanghai.

Her work has received several awards and grants, including the Lucie Scholarship Emerging Grant, the Getty Images Grant for Editorial Photography, a POYi Award of Excellence, and an International Photography Award. Her first book, Bike Kill, was shortlisted for the Paris Photo / Aperture Foundation Photobook Award. In 2022, her project Stayin’ Alive was selected for the Grande Commande for Photojournalism — a prestigious national commission led by the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BnF) with the support of the French Ministry of Culture.
