Raymond Meeks was born in 1963 in central Ohio. His regard for songs and short stories, particularly those centered around impermanence or loss, are at the center of his work.

In 2004, Nazraeli Press published his first monograph, titled Sound of Summer Running, with text by Forrest Gander and Rick Bass. He continues to be inspired by collaboration with writers of poetry and short fiction and the merging of visual and textual narrative.

Ray's work is in numerous private and public collections, including The George Eastman House, The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, The Columbus Museum of Fine Arts, The Corcoran Gallery of Art, and The Bibliotheque Nationale, France.
