Photographic : The Life of Graciela Iturbide

Graciela Iturbide was born in Mexico City in 1942, the oldest of thirteen children. When tragedy strikes Iturbide as a young mother, she turns to photography for solace and understanding.

From then on Iturbide embarks on a photographic journey that takes her throughout her native Mexico, from the Sonora Desert to Juchitan to Frida Kahlo's bathroom, then to the United States, India, and beyond.

Photographic is a symbolic, poetic, and deeply personal graphic biography of this iconic photographer. Graciela's journey will excite young adults and budding photographers, who will be inspired by her resolve, talent, and curiosity.
