![]() The books provides an overview of her life, how she became a photographer, and what pushed her to become the amazing photographer that she is. I’m so glad I purchased this book - it’s beautifully written and illustrated, a combination of words that are poetry, gorgeously drawn images, and actual photos taken by Graciela Iturbide. So when I saw that Isabel Quintero and Zeke Peña had created a graphic novel based on the life of Graciela Iturbide I immediately ordered a copy from our local bookstore! My kids are also first generation US citizens with immigrant parents, and are indigenous Mexican from their father’s side, so I have naturally been gravitating towards reading books that will expand my own personal horizons, and that will also allow my kids to understand and embrace their heritage too. My 4 year old already has very clear desires on becoming a photographer (and clear signs of talent too). I have practiced photography more as a hobby than anything else since I was a kid (still reluctant to call myself a photographer). ![]()
