Reviews
"Insightful collections of interviews with authors abound, but none I have read is superior to Seaman's." -- S an Francisco Chronicle on WRITERS ON THE AIR "Seaman does not merely question her subjects--she engages them with her infectious enthusiasm and opinions . . . Highly recommended." -- Library Journal on WRITERS ON THE AIR "A refreshingly various portrait of both the writers' personalities and the writing process . . . Devotees of what longtime Booklist editor Seaman calls 'serious literature' (as opposed to 'popular fiction,' a distinction she comes back to time and again) and followers of particular writers will find much to admire here." -- P ublishers Weekly on WRITERS ON THE AIR "Seaman is both passionate and generous on the air, and such caring tends to untie authorial tongues." -- Chicago Sun-Times on WRITERS ON THE AIR, "Re-creates the careers of seven groundbreaking female virtuosos, rescuing from history''s margins bold, invigorating work that defied male-centric norms." - O, the Oprah Magazine "Female creators rise in all their splendor and defiance in Donna Seaman''s wonderful new book . . . Seaman [is] an enchanting biographer." - Washington Post " Identity Unknown goes far beyond the more narrow question of criticism in discussing seven women artists whose relative neglect places them in unfair obscurity. No more obscurity for this arty septet! Seaman''s lively portraits make the reader eager to rediscover them, a process helped along by the book''s photos of them and their art." - Seattle Times "[A] diligently researched and compassionately written look into several undsersung female artists . . . It is only through books like Seaman''s, which contains fascinating biographical details as well as keen analyses of individual artworks, that this great historical (and ongoing) slight of accomplished women artists has any hope of being corrected." - Buffalo News " Identity Unknown is not only a book that illuminates the lives and works of seven artists who have been unjustly neglected, a fate shared by countless brilliant women in many fields, it is a passionate examination of the artistic calling itself. As she moves between a particular artist''s personal history and her work, Donna Seaman reveals the stubborn resolve, consuming drive, and fervid concentration necessary for creative labor. In elegant, lucid prose, Seaman makes the unknown known, filling in each blank with a vivid portrait of an exceptional twentieth century artist." - Siri Hustvedt, author of THE BLAZING WORLD "Beautifully written and wise, this haunting book reveals the lives of seven brilliantly creative American artists who, though successful in their own day, have somehow fallen out of sight, along with countless other women artists throughout history. Seaman throws them an elegantly-crafted lifeline, rescuing them from obscurity, in colorful prose that vividly portrays the rich spell of their work, and delves into their lives with empathic curiosity. The result is seven cameos that are poignant and funny, pensive and dramatic, full of calamity and loss at times, as creative lives tend to be, but also love, adventure and the transcendent glory of creating such mesmerizing work. The storied quilt of these unknown lives is absolutely enchanting." - Diane Ackerman, author of THE ZOOKEEPER''S WIFE "Donna Seaman''s . . . flowing, image-rich sentences are always composed with a painterly precision and texture, layering words upon words like a painter blends colors . . . A multifaceted, fascinating list . . . both in terms of the art and the artists'' lives." - Booklist "With impressive research, Booklist editor Seaman curates a fine retrospective on the history of women in the male-dominated world of 20th-century art . . . A decidedly important and long-overdue showcase." - Kirkus Reviews "In-depth analysis and richly written prose." - Chronogram "Insightful collections of interviews with authors abound, but none I have read is superior to Seaman''s." - San Francisco Chronicle on WRITERS ON THE AIR "Seaman does not merely question her subjects--she engages them with her infectious enthusiasm and opinions . . . Highly recommended." - Library Journal on WRITERS ON THE AIR "A refreshingly various portrait of both the writers'' personalities and the writing process . . .
