Item description from seller

Hardcover, 74 pages. Fine condition in a Near Fine dust jacket. Size 8.75"x10.75" (oblong). "Author Marcella Ruch spent many hours with Pablita Velarde recording her stories as first person reminiscences, which the artist has fully endorsed. These anecdotes go back to Pablita's childhood Pueblo life, to her mother's early death from TB, and starting at St. Catherine's Indian School at age 5, Pablita recalls her later years at the Santa Fe Indian School, working with Dorothy Dunn to develop her art, and painting murals at Bandelier under the WPA. She reflects on raising her children alone, and her eventual fame as a American Indian painter . . . . Each story is illustrated with one of Pablita's paintings of Pueblo life, a photograph from her personal collection, or a historical photograph from the Museum of New Mexico photo archives." Book is clean and unmarked. Dust jacket has light shelfwear.
