Levine's work includes iconic images of Björk, R.E.M., the Clash, Afrika Bambaataa, the Ramones, the Beastie Boys, Iggy Pop, and Madonna, among others.

[5] When she was fourteen, she went to a Diane Arbus exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art and developed an interest in photography.

A music fan, Levine began shooting concert performances as a teenager, sneaking her camera into venues by hiding it in her jeans.

She shot daily new stories as the photo chairman at the Harvard Crimson, and served as a campus stringer for UPI and Newsweek.

In the summer of her junior year, she interned at the Washington Post, which published more than 70 of her photos on subjects including White House press conferences, prison life, and the Goodyear Blimp.

In addition, Levine independently set up shoots with bands she was interested in and did early sessions with artists such as R.E.M., the B-52s, the Bangles, and the Dream Syndicate, and provided images for album artwork for releases by artists including X, The Replacements, Robyn Hitchcock, and Joan Jett.

The exhibit featured more than 35 vintage and modern photographs from Levine's archives, included one-of-a-kind gelatin silver prints.

[1][8] Although her primary emphasis was on photography, throughout her career Levine has worked in other mediums, including painting, illustration, and animation.
