Description: Legends : Women Who Have Changed the World Through the Eyes of Great Women Rendered by women artists and writers, these portraits illuminate the most influential women of our time. Liv Ullman marvels at Anne Franks faith in the face of atrocity. Claudia Roth Pierpont explores how Virginia Woolfs atypical persona informed literature for the next hundred years. Camille Paglia champions Amelia Earhart as a pioneer who invaded the male world. The book also celebrates the fire of Angela Davis, the courage of Aung San Suu Kyi, the brains of Eleanor Roosevelt, and the brio of Ella Fitzgerald.
