SFPL celebrates the photography of Nita Winter and Rob Badger ("WinterBadger"). Their photography is being used in promotional materials for this year's Climate Action programs.

Rob’s environmental images have won multiple awards, including Best in Photojournalism in international competition. Nita began her photographic career documenting her work fighting wildfires in northern California and later as a National Park Ranger on Alcatraz.

Their work has been featured in NBC-TV, KQED-TV, Time, Mother Jones, and Sierra magazines, the New York Times, Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle and the Los Angeles Times. They are the recent recipients of the Sierra Club’s 2020 Ansel Adams Award for Conservation Photography.
