WOMEN OF THE NATIVE STRUGGLE: Portraits and Testimony of Native American Women

“If the book is said to have a theme, it is one of activism informed by spirituality, and an enduring pride in traditional values.” - New York Newsday

“…beautifully portrays the personal and social battles fought by contemporary Indian women each day to maintain their balance in a precarious world.”

- American Indian Culture and Research Journal

COWGIRLS: Contemporary Portraits of the American West

“Although the subtitle suggests this tribute is purely pictorial, the accompanying narratives are as engaging as Ronnie Farley’s stunning photographs; both rescue cowgirls from rhinestone-studded stereotypes and document the gritty realities of Western life."

—New York Times Book Review

DIARY of A PEDESTRIAN: A New York Memoir

"Paging through Diary of a Pedestrian is like scanning a stranger’s little black book: There are glimps of auspicious, straight-forward appointments, but primarily, it’s a narrative of impenetrable, mysterious, and slightly tawdry trysts." 

—New York Sun

NEW YORK WATER TOWERS

"Ms Farley delivers a visual ode to the ‘wooden-steins-on-stilts’ that she first spotted from her East Village apartment and has been photographing since 1982." 

-New York Times

WALKING THE WATERSHED:
From the Catskills to New York City

Inspired by the Indigenous-led Nibi walkers in Minnesota, John Francis’ book Planet Walker, and the Standing Rock pipeline protest in 2016, Farley’s photo-journal beautifully captures her 150-mile walk carrying water from New York City’s farthest reservoir to Central Park.
