(2) 4-6 As a teen, Georgia O'Keeffe attracted attention for her nonconformist attire and unconventional behavior. Rubin describes her early life and education before discussing O'Keeffe's big break: a show at pioneering photographer--and future husband--Arthur Stieglitz's gallery; the text gives thoughtful consideration to their partnership. Central to the book are magnificent reproductions of O'Keeffe's pictures, from student sketches to commercial work to lush-hued abstracts. Bib., ind.
