Description

Sandra Hochman seemingly knew everyone, and throughout her life, she captured those friends' likenesses in one-of-a-kind watercolors that now adorn the walls of her Manhattan apartment. Hochman's Portraits of Genius Friendsis a rare glimpse into the world of one of America's singular literary voices and reveals a life lived amongst some of the greatest artists of the 20th Century, including Pablo Picasso, Truman Capote, Andy Warhol, George Plimpton, Phillip Roth, Milos Forman, Henry Miller, Anais Nin, Elie Wiesel, Leonard Bernstein, Allen Ginsburg, James Baldwin, and, believe it or not, many more.
