Tina Modotti: A Fragile Life

"Now widely recognized as one of the early twentieth century's most extraordinary photographers, Tina Modotti was remembered until recently more for her relationship to Edward Weston than for her own strong, sensuous work. This comprehensively produced biography, now published for the first time in paper, captures in over 100 striking photographs and in a sympathetic, meticulously researched text the fullness of a life wholly commited to political, personal, and artistic freedom."--the publisher.
