She had a beautiful eye, beautiful heart and beautiful soul which wanted so much to capture the deep love she saw around her. A big thank you goes out to the Museum of the City of New York, the Smithsonian, and the Mississippi Department of Archives and History.

thank you, thank you, thank you!
A few years ago i went down to my local library and asked the libraian for information on Eudora Welty and she told me she could only find info on Eudora, the writer. I left feeling confused and let down. I had already seen her unbelievebly beautiful photos and could not understand why this library had not. The world must see and learn more about where Eudora's heart and love affair with humanity began!
Thank you again.
