Tasha Tudor
We learned this morning that Tasha Tudor, a close friend of the photographer
Nell Dorr (1895-1988), died yesterday at the age of 92. Known for her children’s book illustrations and commitment to a 19th-century lifestyle, Tudor can be seen in two photographs currently on view in our exhibition, Nell Dorr: From Everlasting to Everlasting.

Tasha Tudor’s obituaries can be read in the New York Times, LA Times, and Washington Post; many of her charming illustrations can be seen here and here.
