Early Life

Tabitha Soren was born on August 19, 1967 in San Antonio, Texas. During her childhood and teen years, she lived in seven different states as well as Germany and the Philippines due to her father's job. After completing high school, she enrolled at New York University. She completed her degree from NYU in 1989.

Career

While at NYU, Soren appeared in the 1987 music video for "You Gotta Fight for Your Right to Party" by the Beastie Boys. After completing school, she became the face of the MTV "Choose or Lose" campaign, which focused on encouraging young adults to vote. The campaign received the Peabody Award in May 1992. She also had a number of jobs as a television reporter for NBC News and ABC News, though her primary role in the 1990s was with MTV News. She was instrumental in helping the network develop their burgeoning news segments, as she had a background and interest in politics in addition to interests in music and popular culture. She interviewed Hillary Clinton, Anita Hill, and Yasser Arafat, among a number of other prominent figures. She also interviewed Tupac Shakur. Clips of this interview were included in the 2003 documentary film "Tupac: Resurrection." She also had cameo roles in the films "The Cable Guy" and "Contact" as herself, as she had become a prominent political and cultural figure during the 1990s.

Soren then decided she wanted to focus her career in other areas. In 1997, she spent a year studying art and photography at Stanford University after being awarded a fellowship. She then began working as a photographer, doing both commercial and artistic work in her early career. Her projects have been published in "The New York Times Magazine," "Canteen," "Vanity Fair," "McSweeney's," "Sports Illustrated," and "New York," as well as a number of other publications.

Over time, she began focusing more on fine art photography exclusively. Her collections have been displayed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Oakland Museum of California, the New Orleans Museum of Art, Pier 24 Photographer, Transformer Station at Cleveland Museum of Art, and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in Louisiana.

In 2012, she premiered a show called "Running" at the Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art. The project had been shot over the course of three years in 15 different states as well as Mexico and Canada. The show featured dramatically lit, isolated individuals running in everyday settings.

In 2015, her exhibition "Fantasy Life" debuted at the Kopeikin Gallery in Los Angeles. It later traveled to the San Francisco Bay Area. The show featured images of 21 baseball players selected for the Oakland A's 2002 draft class. Soren had taken the initial images in 2002 and then followed the players for 13 years until they had all left the sport. Also in 2015, she exhibited her show "Panic Beach." The show featured a series of powerful and rugged waves along coastlines around the world.

In 2017, the Aperture Foundation published a selection of the images featured in Soren's show "Fantasy Life" in a book that featured text by Dave Eggers. The book was released just before the San Francisco City Hall opened an exhibition of over 180 of Soren's images called "Fantasy Life." During the summer of 2017, EUQINOMprojects in San Francisco exhibited work from another of Soren's series called "Surface Tension." In that project, all the images were photographed using 8×10 sheets of film. In November 2022, she exhibited at an art festival in Galway, Ireland.
