Synopsis:
At Twelve is a composite portrait that is both universal and intimately personal. As Ann Beattie writes in her perceptive introduction, These girls still exist in an innocent world in which a pose is only a pose--what adults make of that pose may be the issue. Sally Mann's work is in the collections of major museums across the country. “Haunting black-and-white studies of children, shown here as surprisingly sensual and often distant beings, the magical keepers of some obscure and vaguely frightening secrets.”
--Karen Lipson,Newsday

She has received grants from the NEA, the NEH, the Friends of Photography, and the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. Her first book was Second Sight.

Ann Beattie, a preeminent writer of her generation, has written several books, including the novels Chilly Scenes of Winter and Falling in Place; the short-story collections Distortions and Where You'll Find Me; and Alex Katz, a monograph of the painter's work.
