"Tina Modotti was remembered until recently more for her relationship to Edward Weston than for her own strong work. This comprehensively produced biography, captures in over 100 photographs and a meticulously researched text the fullness of a life wholly committed to political, personal, and artistic freedom. From her early days in Hollywood as a silent film actress, through the creative, fruitful years in Mexico with Weston and her political exile in 1930s Europe, to her sudden death in 1942."
