Meola’s photographs are included in the archive of the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP), the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C., the International Center of Photography in New York, the George Eastman Museum, and Die Neue Sammlung (Design Museum) in Munich. His previous books include Last Places on Earth (Graphis, 2004), Born to Run: The Unseen Photos (Insight Editions, 2006), India: In Word & Image (revised edition; Rizzoli 2013), and Fierce Beauty: Storms of the Great Plains (Images Publishing, 2019).

Carol McCusker received an M.A. and Ph.D. in Art History and the History of Photography from the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, under Professors Eugenia Parry and Geoff Batchen.

She was Curator at the Museum of Photographic Arts, San Diego, and is presently the Cofrin Endowed Curator of Photography for the Harn Museum of Art at the University of Florida, Gainesville.
