Summary

Berenice Abbott is to American photography what Georgia O'Keeffe is to painting or Willa Cather to letters. Abbott's sixty-year career established her not only as a master of American photography but also as a teacher, writer, archivist, and inventor. This biography secures Abbott's place in the histories of photography and modern art while framing her accomplishments as a female artist and entrepreneur
