Pendant deux années consécutives 2001 et 2002, Mary Ellen Mark installa un studio lors du Twins Days Festival à Twinsburg, Ohio. 

"I've always been fascinated by twins. In my forty years of photographing, whenever there was an opportunity, I would take a picture of twins. I found the notion that two people could appear to look exactly alike very compelling."
