Early lifeAt age 18, Felicia relocated from Takoradi to Accra after marriage where she set up her own Studio.[3] Photography careerHer career spanned 50 years. Her photography career began when she learnt photography from her father, and became his only female apprentice at the time.[1] Abban established her studio in Accra in 1955 and took on other women as apprentices. She was then recognized as one of Ghana's earliest instrumental female photographers projecting the contemporary African narrative through the lens.[4] The first public display of her work was staged at ANO's gallery in March 2017 and the gallery has plans of transforming her studio into a museum in her honour. The museum when completed will help preserve her work further serving as a hub to support upcoming artists.[1] Abban's private photo collection consists of photos she often takes of herself before she attended events. She retired from photography as a result of a worsening arthritis condition.[5] Family lifeFelicia was married to Robert Abban (late), the man who designed the fabric which had Kwame Nkrumah's portrait designed on flowers with Ghana map for Ghana's independence celebrations in 1957.[6] Mr Abban was the creative director of former Ghana Textiles and Manufacturing Company(GTMC).
