Synopsis
From back cover, this book "tells the largely untold story of women photographers in turn of the century America. Women like Gertrude Kasebier, Frances Benjamin Johnson, Alice Austen, and Eva Watson Schutze were among thousands of women who as professional and amateur photographers sought personal, artistic, and professional fulfillment while still connected to the traditional domestic environment." Among the six chapters are " The Watchword of the Age" and "Female Visions as Social History." Includes notes, bibliography, and an index.
