When tragedy struck Iturbide as a young mother, she turned to photography for solace and understanding. From then on Iturbide embarked on a photographic journey that has taken her throughout her native M\u00e9xico, from the Sonora Desert to Juchit\u00e1n to Frida Kahlo\u2019s bathroom, to the United States, India, and beyond.\u00a0<i>Photographic<\/i>\u00a0is a symbolic, poetic, and deeply personal graphic biography of this iconic photographer. Iturbide&#8217;s journey will excite readers of all ages as well as budding photographers, who will be inspired by her resolve, talent, and curiosity.&#8221; &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/35888383-photographic\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p>While the black and white images and thoughtful interspersing of Iturbide&#8217;s real-life photography is incredibly moving, this book&#8217;s strength is the writing. This is a great example of what happens when #ownvoices writers are given free-reign over the creative aspects of a piece of work. Quintero&#8217;s words radiate love, respect, and awe for Iturbide&#8217;s work, and given that this is a graphic novelization about photography, that&#8217;s really saying something.<\/p>\n<p>Call # 770.92 Q458ph<\/p>\n<p><em>Review by Vicki<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Graciela Iturbide was born in M\u00e9xico City in 1942, the oldest of 13 children.
