Imogen: The Life and Work of Imogen Cunningham - Hardcover
by Elizabeth Partridge (Author), Yuko Shimizu (Illustrator)
A picture book biography of the iconic photographer Imogen Cunningham by National Book Award finalist Elizabeth Partridge.
Imogen Cunningham loved to observe the world. She noticed the colors in the woods outside her house and how light and shadows moved between the trees. She tried to capture this beauty on paper with pencils, but something was missing. One day she read about a woman in Paris who earned a living as a photographer, and she knew she was meant to do the same. With the support of her loving father, she then began her journey to become one of the most important photographers in America. The life of iconic photographer Imogen Cunningham is brought vividly to life by National Book Award finalist Elizabeth Partridge, who also happens to be Cunningham's granddaughter. With stunning illustrations by Caldecott Honor winner Yuko Shimizu, Imogen captures the passion of the creative process with a unique and intimate perspective.Elizabeth Partridge is the author of Woody Guthrie: This Land was Made for You and Me, which was a National Book Award finalist, and John Lennon: All I Want Is the Truth, which won the Michael L. Printz Honor. Her other honors include the SCBWI Golden Kite Award, the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award, and the Robert F. Sibert Medal. She lives in Oakland, California with her family.
