Today's class

(To see this week's homework assignment see post below)

Dear class,

Congratulations on your hallway exhibition! I had no idea that was going to happen, but I'm very gratified to have had such a good day. (The way it happened was this: At around 3:00 the Chair of Fine Arts, Suzanne Anker, happened to be walking by our class room. When she saw your drawings she was so impressed that she spontaneously decided to include them in a show that will introduce the School to the public during our annual Open House). The drawings will be hanging there for a few weeks.

Realizing that I neglected to mention the name of the photographer whose work we studied today, I wanted to do that here. Her name is Dorothea Lange, and the photograph is titled Migrant Mother (1936).
