Choice Review
Women Artists in Midcentury America is a timely and essential contribution to art historical knowledge of women artists and the wide variety of institutions that supported them with all-women shows from 1943 to 1962.... it also puts many new artists, works of art, and exhibition venues on the scholarly radar.... Highly recommended.
