Satisfaction Guaranteed. In unusually candid personal meetings and interviews with nine women of genius, Joan Kufrin has drawn from those outstanding artists their own expressions of how and why, of all the talented people in the world, they had managed to reach the peaks of their artistic fields. When had they first known that they had to dance, or write, or paint? Who had encouraged them as children? What disciplines had they been compelled to master? How had they, in spite of the many traditional forces that keep women from developing inner genius, overcome their frustrations? The answer, in every case a contradiction of the expected, lay in strength of will and belief in one's artistic vision. The nine uncommon women who gave of themselves to answer these vital and searching questions were Gwendolyn Brooks, poet; Sarah Caldwell, conductor; Julie Harris, actress; Mary McCarthy, writer; Alice Neel, painter; Roberta Peters, opera singer; Maria Tallchief, dancer; Mary Lou Williams, composer; Eugenia Zukerman, musician. Each artist discusses in detail the work and the life she led in devoting herself to art, and with each it is clear that she was an artist first, a woman second. Nothing was permitted to come between her and her goal. What shines through in these professional lives is the fine steel that makes up the character of the artist and the love of the work each revels. This is an intimate book, for young women and older women, but for men also. It does not stress divisions among humans. Rather it shows consistently that art connects us all. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Signed by Author.
