Autor

Art historian and critic Cassandra Langer became the accidental biographer of Romaine Brooks (1874-1970) when a search to uncover the artist's aesthetics led Langer to rethink the flawed narrative of Brooks' life. The award-winning author and former Smithsonian post-doctoral fellow is best known for her books, "Mother and Child in Art", "What's Right with Feminism", "A Bibliography of Feminist Art Criticism", and "Feminist Art Criticism." Her articles and reviews have appeared in Art in America, College Art Journal, Arts Magazine, Art Criticism, Women's Art Journal, Art Papers, MS. Magazine, Women's Review of Books, Cleo Psyche, the Journal of Lesbian Studies, and the Gay and Lesbian Review Worldwide. She has organized several exhibitions, lectured widely, and authored essays on a variety of topics within the studies of feminism and LGBTQ+ history.
