The Retablos of Jeronimo Lozano by Alan Govenar

Dive into the life and work of master craftsman Jeronimo Lozano and his extraordinarily detailed retablos.
Norma Miller got her start as a professional dancer as a teenager, when she was invited to join the swing dance troupe, Whitey's Lindy Hoppers. By the late 1930s, the Lindy Hoppers were internationally renowned. In 2003, the National Endowment for the Arts honored Norma Miller with a National Heritage Fellowship, the highest form of federal recognition for folk and traditional artists in America. Norma Miller lives in Florida, where she continues to teach, choreograph, dance, and swing, baby, swing!

Alan Govenar is a filmmaker, photographer, folklorist, and writer. In 1985, he founded Documentary Arts, Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to presenting new perspectives on different cultures. He has authored numerous books, including Osceola: Memories of a Sharecropper's Daughter, winner of a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award in Nonfiction. Alan's friendship and conversations with Norma Miller began in 2001. Those conversations formed the foundation of this oral autobiography. Alan Govenar lives in Texas.
