...anywhere." Her reaction to his praise is typical for her: "Of course, I had been photographing for twenty-five years." In 1931, Martha Graham called Imogen "the only photographer before whom I can create."

...ports shouldn't have mattered to any of the Gazette's readers, because who in good sense would want to leave the Island? The Vineyard has everything--fresh seafood, clean air, unspoiled beaches, and such interesting people.
