Event Details

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Join us at Mrs. Dalloway’s Bookstore on Tuesday, August 26 for a special evening with local author ELIZABETH PARTRIDGE as she celebrates the launch of her new picture book on her grandmother, the iconic photographer Imogen Cunningham, Imogen: The Life and Work of Imogen Cunningham.
Elizabeth will share stories of growing up with Imogen and offer a personal look at the photographer’s unconventional childhood. She’ll explore the challenges Imogen faced as a photographer, as well as the remarkable friendship between Imogen and artist Ruth Asawa, a bond that spanned more than four decades despite their forty-three-year age difference.
The talk will be accompanied by a slideshow of Imogen’s striking photography and clips from “Portrait of Imogen”, the Academy Award nominated documentary by Elizabeth’s sister, Meg Partridge. Come enjoy an evening at Mrs. Dalloway’s and get to know Imogen through the eyes of her family. A book signing will follow the talk.
