Life and work

After leaving college, Worth assisted portrait photographer Steve Pyke for a number of years both in the UK and New York.

In 2000 he was selected as one of Photo District News's "30 under 30".

In 2009 Worth pioneered two open and free undergraduate photography classes called #picbod (Picturing the Body) and #phonar (Photography and Narrative). These classes have drawn large audiences and notable people including Elinor Carucci, Pete Brook and David Campbell. In 2010 the world's first free 'class application' was launched on iPhone for the #picbod class. These open classes have brought Worth significant attention from photography academics and external organizations, in 2013 he was made an Higher Education Authority National Teaching Fellow for developing "a radically new approach to teaching, which magnifies the classroom experience through the affordances of social media and networked environments".

In 2010 Worth was made a fellow of the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce (RSA) for "innovation and influential role in developing new business models for photographers using the social web".
