Requests:  0 Summary:  Following her retirement from Princeton University, celebrated historian Dr. Nell Irvin Painter surprised everyone in her life by returning to school--in her sixties--to earn a BFA and MFA in painting. In Old in Art School, she travels from her beloved Newark to the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design; finds meaning in the artists she loves, even as she comes to understand how they may be undervalued; and struggles with the unstable balance between the pursuit of art and the inevitable, sometimes painful demands of a life fully lived. How are women and artists seen and judged by their age, looks, and race? What does it mean when someone says, "You will never be an artist"? Who defines what "An Artist" is and all that goes with such an identity?--from publisher's description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Biography B Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 700.92 Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 700.92 Painter Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 700.92 Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 700.92 PAINTER Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Biography B Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 700.92 Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 700.92 Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Biography B Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waikiki-Kapahulu Public Library Adult Biography B Painter Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
