Painting out the Past - The life and art of Patricia France

Author(s): Richard Donald

Fiction (child/Teen)

A biography of New Zealand painter, Patricia France (1911-95). A fascinating portrait of a woman with great courage and a remarkable resilient spirit. Trained at the New York School of Interior Design in Paris during the 1930's, she struggled to find a place in Auckland society on her return. Like Janet Frame, she narrowly avoided drastic brain surgery, eventually making a slow recovery and a return to independent life. First published November 2008, Dunedin, NZ
