Linda does so much more than ‘take pictures.’ Her camera connects with the subjects in a personal way. She doesn't just photograph faces; Linda somehow reaches into souls. She takes the pain and fear, the joy and tragedy, the sadness and sense of wonder - whatever her subjects are experiencing - and she somehow captures it in the photograph. Linda's work allows one, perhaps forces one, to establish a link with the photograph, and they suddenly become treasures. Thanks to Linda Panetta, I am rich beyond measure with "treasures" from around the world.” - Bishop Thomas Gumbleton

"Over the years I've been privileged to meet a number of impressive people; people who have committed their time and energies to making life in the world better for us all. No one fits this description better than Linda Panetta, who aside from being utterly dedicated to the cause of Human Rights, is a gifted photographer, and a totally cool human being to boot. In our travels together in Iraq and Latin America, I've been repeatedly struck by her determination and courage. My experience of those trips has been made richer by her presence and example.- Bruce Cockburn

Our Mother... Our Sister

Can you imagine how far it had to travel...
how long it's taken for that ray of sunlight to paint your face,
your sorrow, your love that way?


Gentle woman, beautiful child,
what pain you have felt... the loneliness you've endured...
the violence that you've known. 
How you have grieved for the blood that has been shed,
for the innocence stolen away,
for the hopelessness that now consumes your soul.

Forgive me that I do not do more, do not know the best ways,
am not sensitive or humble enough.
Show me, teach me, be One with me
my beloved Mother, my Sister, my Friend.

- Linda Panetta
