I enjoy seeing photographs or reading almost anything about The Ramones, but it is specially satisfactory when a written piece is done well with a true sense of understanding of punk music, this is just the case in what Maggie has written about the band, she is also very good at capturing the bands spirit in photos.”

-Arturo Vega
RAMONES Creative Director, 2001

Since 1994, the photographic and journalistic works of Maggie St.Thomas have graced the pages and covers of more than 300 print publications like High Times, Billboard and Rolling Stone Magazine, and have been featured in music videos, including Sublime’s video for “Boss DJ – Acoustic Version”, animated by Andrew William Ralph.

In 1998, she began her studies at Cal State Fullerton, focusing on Criminal Investigation, Forensic Sciences, Private Investigation, and Undercover Surveillance. Nearly two decades later, in 2017, she earned her licensing and certifications through the Cremation Association of North America (CANA) and spent three years working in Death Care as a Crematory Operator, guiding those who once had a beating heart into the afterlife. Today, she works as an author, crafting literature and working on photo volumes with her past photographic works.
