Living Memories - Hardcover
by Nellie Gail Moulton (Author), Scott T. Barnes (Editor)
Nellie Gail Moulton crossed Kansas in a covered wagon, became a school teacher and principal in Washington state, managed a 22,000-acre ranch in Orange County, California, and studied en plein aire art with such greats as William Wendt, Edgar Payne, and Anna Hills. She also lived a fairytale romance with cattle rancher Lewis Moulton.
In her later years, Nellie helped found the Laguna College of Art and Design, spearheaded the construction of the Laguna Playhouse, and traveled around the world several times. Illustrated by over 100 photographs, the memoir's many footnotes and endnotes allow more detailed study. Truly a Renaissance woman, Nellie tells her life story in evocative yet approachable language.
"I have never been so present with an historical figure as when I read LIVING MEMORIES, by Nellie Gail Moulton." Jean Stern, Director Emeritus, The Irvine Museum
"Nellie Gail Moulton lived through cyclones, sod houses, and the birth of modern California. Her memoir Living Memories, written in 1970 at age 92, [] reads like sitting with your most interesting great-aunt as she spills family secrets over coffee." BlueInk Reviews
