- Margaret Morton (geb. Willis; * 16. Oktober 1948 in Akron, Ohio, USA; † 27. Juni 2020 in New York City, USA) war eine US-amerikanische Fotografin, Autorin und Professorin für Grafikdesign und Fotografie.Ende der 1980er Jahre begann Morton, das Zusammenleben mehrerer Gemeinschaften von Obdachlosen in New York City in Langzeitprojekten zu dokumentieren.Die sozialdokumentarischen Fotografien über Obdachlosigkeit und Armut in New York City führten Morton in öffentliche Parks, zu leerstehenden städtischen Grundstücken, in unterirdische Tunnel.Ihre Arbeiten wurden in fünf Büchern, zahlreichen Zeitungen, wie der New York Times, Washington Post oder The Atlantic, Museen und Ausstellungen publiziert.Mortons fotografisches Werk wurde mit denen von Jacob August Riis, Lewis Hine, Gordon Parks, Dorothea Lange, Milton Rogovin oder auch Jacob Holdt verglichen.

- Margaret Morton (Née Willis; October 16, 1948 – June 27, 2020) was an American photographer, author, and professor of visual arts. She was a School of Art Professor at Cooper Union. For several decades beginning in the late 1980s, Morton's body of work largely depicted communities of homeless people in New York City. She published a number of photo collections in books, usually supplemented by detailed interviews with the photos' subjects. Her work was noted for depicting human stories within communities that were both highly structured and quite temporary, often shortly before their forcible destruction by New York Cities authorities. Her success in documenting poverty in New York City has been compared to the work of Jacob Riis. (en)
