Sheila Metzner's unique photographic style has positioned her as a contemporary master in the worlds of fine are, fashion, portrature, still life and landscape photography.

Born in Brooklyn, she attended Pratt Institute, where she majored in Visual Communications, and was then hired by Doyle Dane Bernbach advertising agency as its first female art director. She took pictures all the while, embassing them slowly over the next thirteen years, while raising five children. One of these photographs was included in a famous and controversial exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, Mirrors and Windows, American Photography since 1960, and became the dark horse hit of the exhibition. Gallery shows and commercial clients soon followed. Her first commercial client was Valentino, followed by Elizabeth Arden, Perry Ellis, Shiseido, Fendi, Saks Fifth Avenue, Poloma Picasso, Victoria's Secret, Revlon, and in recent years Levi's, Ralph Lauren, Club Monaco, Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.

Sheila's fine art photographs are featured in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, The international Center of Photography
