Description
This volume presents a personal memoir Dorothy Norman (1905-1997). Norman was a female American photographer, writer, editor, arts patron and advocate for social change. In this work, Norman recounts her friendships with photographers and artists like Stieglitz and Noguchi; with political leaders ranging from New York's Mayor William O'Dwyer to Indira Gandhi. Norman shares her friends' letters and conversations, revealing not only their brilliance, but her own kindness and inquiring mind. An author and photographer herself, Norman is a model for selfless activity on behalf of others. Her book is a fascinating record of a woman who made an impact on her age.
