== Life ==

Jo Spence was born on 15 June 1934 in London to working class parents.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jo Spence Collection )〕 Before she became a photographer, she was a writer, cultural worker, and a photo therapist. She started off as a wedding photographer and ran a studio from 1967–1974. Soon afterwards, she began documentary work in the early 1970s, motivated by her political concerns. Both a socialist and feminist, she worked to represent these issues through her practice of photography. She was involved in setting up Photography Workshop (1974), a group focused on education and publishing, along with the socialist historian of photography Terry Dennett and Camerawork magazine (1976). She was also a founding member of the Hackney Flashers (1974), a collective of broadly feminist and socialist women who produced exhibitions such as 'Women and Work' and 'Who's Holding the Baby'.〔

In 1979, Spence studied the theory and practice of photography at the Polytechnic of Central London with photo theorist Victor Burgin. She gained a first class Honours Degree and changed her previous opinions and ways about photography. During the late 1970s and into the early 1980s her work became more focused on themes of domesticity and family life.〔 In a companion piece for ''Beyond the Family Album, Public Images, Private Conventions'' she wrote on how she wished to examine, "the question of who represents who in society, how they do it and for what purpose."
In 1982, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Since her diagnosis, Spence started to focus on identity, subjectivity, mental and physical health. During her tenure as a photographer, she maintained a career as an educator, writer, and broadcaster. She later died in London on May 1992 from leukaemia.〔 Terry Dennett, who was a former collaborator and friend of Spence, is currently the curator of Jo Spence Memorial Archive.〔
