...dentist Fritz Pfeffer). We have this remarkable girl's X ray. But Anne was no solitary saint; she was surrounded by helpers and victims. Many of them are still alive, bearing witness without stooping to sentiment. This film is their story too. Anne Frank Remembered is a group portrait, a social history told, with pained eloquence, by the survivors...
THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL PORTRAIT of Johnson and his smile on your cover. His grin lights up a room, and his story lights up the heart! The virus he has seems not to have altered his physical health or his attitude toward life--so different from some of your recent cover subjects, the arrogant, the greedy, the obsessed and the corrupt, who are suffering from "viruses" of mind and soul.

He liked Hals' vulgarity and reflected it in his portraits, one of the most spectacular of which is in this show--Salome, 1909, a portrait of a dancer known as Mademoiselle Voclezca. Her long leg, thrust out with strutting sexual arrogance and glinting through the overbrushed black veil, had more oomph than a thousand of the virginal Muses and personifications...
