Betty Hahn (born 1940) is an American photographer known for working in alternative and early photographic processes.[1] She completed both her BFA (1963) and MFA (1966) at Indiana University Bloomington. Initially, Hahn worked in other two-dimensional art mediums before focusing on photography in graduate school.[2] She is well-recognized due to her experimentation with experimental photographic methods which incorporate different forms of media.[3] By transcending traditional concepts of photography, Hahn challenges the viewer not only to assess the content of the image, but also to contemplate the photographic object itself.
