About the Author:
Pamela Valois lives in Berkeley, California with her husband and two sons. Her photographs have been shown in West Coast galleries and have appeared nationally in books, magazines, and calendars.
From Library Journal:
This is a beautiful (and successful) effort by photographer Valois and writer Painter to praise, through portrait and vignette, the lives of a group of older women, some well known, some not. Eloquently presented is the concept that "old" age for these women has not by any means brought an abandonment of vitality, commitment, and sense of purpose. Indeed, for many, an intensification and expansion of these attributes has occurred. Although these are particular women, they are clearly representative of the strength of the human will to "survive," with integrity, for the duration of one's life span. Visually attractive in format and content, stimulating of thought, this book should be savored. Highly recommended to a broad audience. Suzanne W. Wood, SUNY Agricultural & Technical Coll.
