Anna Fox (b.1961, UK) is nominated for for the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize 2010 for her exhibition Cockroach Diary & Other Stories at Ffotogallery, Cardiff (28 July – 10 October 2009), initiated by Impressions Gallery, Bradford.

Fox is considered part of the new wave of British colour documentary photographers that emerged in the 1980s. Over the last 25 years she has created a compelling study of the mundane and bizarre in British life, with a mix of social observation and personal diary projects.

In series such as Notes from Home (1996 – 2003) and My Mother’s Cupboard and My Father’s Words (1999), Fox’s camera focuses on the humorous and disturbing details of the everyday.
