What is Women of Our Time : an Album of Twentieth-century Photographs about?
<p>"Women of Our Time is a photographic celebration of seventy-five of the most creative, humane, controversial, witty, brave, beautiful, and inspirational women of the twentieth century. These revealing portraits, by an array of distinguished photographers, show women who have reached the summit of achievement in politics, business, art, sports, performance, music, humanitarianism, and science." "There are rarely seen photographs of women such as Marilyn Monroe, Helena Rubinstein, Hannah Arendt, Billie Holiday, Gloria Steinem, Sylvia Plath, and many others - women who have broken new gound and redefined their field. Many of these images show their subjects at pivotal moments in their careers, and every portrait is accompanied by a brief biography that not only highlights each woman's distinctive contributions and achievements, but also how she was viewed by her contemporaries." With a preface by Cokie Roberts, Women of Our Time is a magnificent tribute to women who have helped to define the modern age, and a beautiful and thought-provoking gift for anyone interested in the contribution to twentieth-century life made by these extraordinary women.</p>
