    Georgia O'Keeffe
    May 29 2024
    Georgia O'Keeffe is known as the mother of Modernism; she created a vast body of work, always finding a novel way to express what she wanted to say through her art. After talking about Mary Cassatt, we were both drawn back to her story and thought you might like to revisit her, too.

  • Mary Cassatt

    Mary Cassatt
    May 15 2024
    Mary Cassatt had always been an independent thinker. But once she became a member of the radical group of artists known as the Impressionists, she sidestepped expectations of gender (and the traditional rules of artistic expression) and forged a singular style that was all her own.

    Mar 13 2024
    According to Jessie Tarbox Beals - the first female photojournalist in the world - the key to success is mostly HUSTLE. In her case, it looked like this: arrive in a new town, set up a darkroom, canvas the populace, ingratiate yourself, SNAP SNAP SNAP, develop, print, deliver, catch the train as it's pulling out of the station...

    Althea Gibson Part 1
    Feb 28 2024
    There are quite a few lines on a tennis court; sideline, baseline, service line - all of which have their functions. But beginning in 1950, a powerful and charismatic African American athlete named Althea Gibson began to smash tennis' color lines, one after another. Althea Gibson broke new ground and changed the world's perception of what was possible in the world of sports.

    Maria Anna Mozart and Clara Schumann
    Feb 14 2024
    Maria Anna Mozart and Clara Schumann were talented and musically gifted women. They were both child prodigies and both dazzled audiences across Europe. While they were (and still are) often put in the shadow of a talented male relative, one woman quietly stepped out of the spotlight while the other fought to stay.
