Synopsis
Marlene Park was born in Los Angeles. She attended UCLA and went on to obtain a Ph.D. in art history at Columbia University. She taught at Barnard, Hunter, and Lehman Colleges, but spent most of her career at John Jay College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. Although she began as a Medievalist, she turned to American Art and became a leading authority on the Federal Arts Projects of the 1930s. Her book, Democratic Vistas, co-authored with Gerald Markowitz, is the basic study of the New Deal's post office murals and sculptures. Writing for Sanity is an edited version of the journal she kept during her six-year struggle with breast cancer, a journal she wished to have published. She was married for 52 years to William Park and is survived by him, two children, two stepchildren, and nine grandchildren.Edited with a Foreward by William Park

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
