She didn't see any paintings of people who looked like her, either. So when she was offered a commission to paint portraits of accomplished African Americans, she jumped at the chance. Writers, singers, political activists, and thinkers all posed for her. Now her portraits hang in Washington, D.C.'s National Portrait Gallery, where children of all races can admire the beautiful shades of brown she captured."-- Provided by publisher. 521 $a Ages 7-11. 541 $d 20200514. 600 1 $a Waring, Laura Wheeler, $d 1887-1948 $x Biography $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a African Americans in art $v Juvenile literature. 650 7 $a Biographies. 650 $a Women artists $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 $a African American women artists $v Juvenile literature. 700 $a Marshall, Felicia. 941 $a 10 952 $l PZPA094 $d 20221028011753.0 952 $l ENPC715 $d 20220820012417.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20220806013636.0 952 $l CDPC522 $d 20220709010241.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630014910.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20220628010810.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20211209010247.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20210428011712.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200911010210.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20200804013046.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FADBEC3AD61711EAA956BD2F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
