The artist behind Sisters of the Road —

Anne-Marie Michel is a London-based visual artist. 
Sisters of the Road grew from childhood memories of her mother driving her and her sisters across the USA — just the four of them, starting over as a family of women after her parents' divorce. Along the way, she noticed the lone truckers at roadside diners and the big rigs that shared the highway with them — a quiet, parallel world of solitary travellers.
Years later, she returned — travelling 10,000 miles across the US to seek out, speak with, and photograph America's trucker women. Sisters of the Road has since been published as a book, exhibited around the world, and recognised with awards.
