Praise
"A frank, compassionate, and memorable study of the woman behind the legend and her ravishing creations."
—Booklist
"This engrossing biography of Georgia O’Keeffe sweeps away myths and legends….a remarkable piece of detective work."
—Publishers Weekly
"Hogrefe manages to be both fair and compassionate in his treatment of a difficult woman–who also happens to be one of our most dazzling national treasures."
–Edmund White
"A historic, in-depth study of what it means to risk one’s life to be an artist. It is also a depiction of sexual confusions, ironic outrage and rage, and the shedding of society’s armor to create a female knight in pursuit of a vision. Georgia O’Keeffe is the one woman who was there first in the world of art."
–Sandra Hochman
