JOYCE: When I photograph somebody, I wanna know them, connect with their secrets.
- Her work is feminine.
It's celebrating women.
- Joyce's work feels mystic.
- Her pictures whisper.
TINA: The extraordinary life of a groundbreaking photographer.
- It was very tough for Joyce to break through in the '80s.
She just recognized early that men always got the heroic treatment.
- Because she kind of paved the way, really wanting to understand and celebrate and communicate women's lives.
- I was like a race horse that had been let out of the gate.
I had to be fierce.
You don't survive in New York unless you're fierce.
So I was fierce.
