The Brazilian Photographs of Genevieve Naylor, 1940-1942

"Genevieve Naylor was one of many Americans, including Orson Wells, Walt Disney, and Errol Flynn dispatched to Brazil to help strengthen the war-time alliance. Her photographs, perhaps the largest surviving body of work portraying the country during the war years, concentrated on ordinary people and captured their everyday struggles, optimism, and inner spirit. Robert M. Levine's sensitive and intelligent introduction and wonderful sampling of Naylor's work are sure to delight photography enthusiasts and historians."--Colin M. MacLachlan, Tulane University
