Frida and Diego: Art, Love, Life by Catherine Reef
Nontraditional, controversial, rebellious, and politically volatile, the Mexican artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera are remembered for their provocative paintings as well as for their deep love for each other. Their marriage was one of the most tumultuous and infamous in history-filled with passion, pain, betrayal, revolution, and, above all, art that helped define the twentieth century. Catherine Reef's inspiring and insightful dual biography features numerous archival photos and full-colour reproductions of both artists' work. It includes endnotes, bibliography, and timeline.
Catherine Reef is the author of more than 40 nonfiction books for young people, many of them award winners. Her biographies include the highly praised E. E. Cummings: A Poet's Life and Sigmund Freud: Pioneer of the Mind, winner of the Sydney Taylor Book Award. She lives in College Park, Maryland.
