The Alluring Art of Margaret Brundage: Queen of Pulp Pin-Up Art
THE VILLAGE VOICE 12-11-2013:Brundage's menaced damsels were sleek eye candy, but this book reveals politics --advocating for gender and racial equality as well as labor rights at a time when activism led to blacklisting -- that prove that the 'Queen of the Pulps' was as brave as any of her titillating heroines. Review by R. C. Baker."A great compilation of works from a female artist... who hasn't gotten the credit she deserves, especially from feminists."-- Advocate .com"The term 'objectifying women' wouldn't have existed at the time, but Brundage topped what many of the men were doing,"-- New York Times"Almost two books in one, focusing alternately on [Brundage's] art and her secret life. It's also a tale about America."-- The Atlantic"Brundage may have been a kind of genius. Her work... zoomed straight past the intellect and homed in on the viscera."-- Playboy"Brundage blazed trails... for photographers like Bunny Yeager and painters like Olivia De Berardinis.  A revolutionary for women, as well as black rights, even though she herself was not a person of color."-- Horror Review Round-Up
