Wilson's work has been documented in four books. Her latest work, Avedon at Work (2003) documents one of the greatest photographers of the 20^th century. Grit & Glory, a study of six-man football, also was published in 2003. Wilson was Avedon's assistant for six years, and her photographs and journal entries reveal Avedon's creative process, work methods, and range of subjects. In 2000, Yale University Press published Hutterites of Montana, and 1989 marked the publication of Walt Matthews of Lambshead, a photographic essay about one of the last great Texas cattlemen.
