Amazon.com description: Product Description: Wit, wisdom, and willfulness abound on page after page of this vibrant anthology from Gloria Fowler and up-and-coming illustrator Ellen Surrey. Featuring an unparalleled collection of real-life heroines of the art, design, and fashion industries, MID-CENTURY MODERN WOMEN IN THE VISUAL ARTS is a celebration of some of the most creative and successful females of that era and their societal contributions.

A short biography rounds out the introduction to each prominent figure of the 1930s to â60s, providing a key glimpse into the lives of such impressive women as fashion maven Coco Chanel, iconic painter Frida Kahlo, and Itâs a Small World designer Mary Blair. Discover Edith Headâs humor, Vera Neumann's inventive spirit, and Sister Corita Kentâs life advice.
