Paperback. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st. x, 169 pages, illustrations (some colour), map; 29 cm. Published on the occasion of an exhibition presented at the New York Public Library, October 24, 2008 to February 15, 2009. SIGNED. Boldly signed by Micki McGee on the title page, no dedication. A near-fine copy, slightly sunned along the tail edge/front cover. First paperback edition. Large softcover. Profusely illustrated. *** "Established by a pair of philanthropists who believed adamantly in the power of creativity, Yaddo has hosted some of the twentieth century's most renowned writers, composers, and visual artists, including Hannah Arendt, James Baldwin, Saul Bellow, Leonard Bernstein, Elizabeth Bishop, Truman Capote, Flannery O'Connor, Aaron Copland, Langston Hughes, Carson McCullers, Sylvia Plath, Philip Roth, and Clyfford Still. Richly illustrated with photographs, prints, intimate letters, papers, and ephemera from archives and collections at both Yaddo and The New York Public Library--many of which have never before been seen by the public--Yaddo offers a window into the workings of this famously private institution and insight into the lives and circumstances of the artists who lived and worked there. It examines the relationship between the premier artists' colony and the ideals of democracy and individuality that inform an American vision. From Aaron Copland to Robert Lowell, from Agnes Smedley to Langston Hughes, the volume shares the stories of those who visited this haven and highlights the debates and controversies that threatened to break apart its tranquility. With essays by Marcelle Clements, David Gates, Allan Gurganus, Tim Page, Ruth Price, Barry Werth, Karl Emil Willers, and Helen Vendler, along with an overview by curator Micki McGee, Yaddo revisits the major moments of twentieth-century American culture and history." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Creative power: Yaddo and the making of American culture, by Micki McGee; Refuge and crucible: Newton Arvin's Yaddo, by Barry Werth; The trailblazer: Aaron Copland and the Festivals of American Music, by Tim Page; In good company: visual artists at Yaddo, by Karl E.
