Wow! This was excellent. I wasn‘t familiar with her, but I am glad you wrote about her. What an impressive woman. I love that photograph of the two women kissing!

And I know what you mean, it is really difficult to do these people and their interesting lives and career justice in these rather short posts. I made the same experience writing about Cunningham whose career spanned over seven decades.

But you did a great job!

And thank you, for including my post here! I really appreciate it!

Thank you! There is a good biography about her, which I am halfway through, so may revisit once I have done my survey of the shelves at the library.

Amazing. From a technical perspective the first shot and the portraits of Twain and Booker T look like they could have been taken yesterday. They must have been meticulously restored/ preserved.

Thank you Neil for a fascinating post about someone who I didn’t know but deserves far more recognition. She has an impeccable eye.
