Synopsis

Tonita Pena is considered by many to be the first woman painter among the Rio Grande Pueblo people, one whose work is extremely well regarded from the time she began painting, shortly after 1916, to her death in 1949. Before the time of the publication of this book, there was no book written that focused directly upon her life and accomplishments as an artist. This volume remedies that omission by bringing together unpublished archival materials, written and recorded reminiscences of individuals close to her, as well as insights developed by the author's longstanding fascination with the Pueblo Southwest.
