Publisher Synopsis
"Genevieve Naylor was one of many Americans, including Orson Wells, Walt Disney, and Errol Flynn dispatched to Brazil to help strengthen the war-time alliance. Her photographs, perhaps the largest surviving body of work portraying the country during the war years, concentrated on ordinary people and captured their everyday struggles, optimism, and inner spirit. Robert M. Levine's sensitive and intelligent introduction and wonderful sampling of Naylor's work are sure to delight photography enthusiasts and historians."-Colin M. MacLachlan, Tulane University "Miss Naylor captures the feeling, flavor, joy, pathos of all the blending cultures . . . of this fascinating nation."-San Francisco Examiner "The product of an immensely sophisticated artist"-San Francisco Chronicle From reviews of Faces and Places in Brazil, Genevieve Naylor's 1943 exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art:"A superb collection of Brazilian photography. . . . Faces and Places in Brazil . . . is a must see."-New York Times Read more...
