  I'm Not Your Muse - Uncovering...

  An illuminating exploration of 31 incredible women—across art, architecture, dance, literature, and more—whose culture-defining contributions have, until now, been overshadowed by their role as "muses" to history's better-known men.  What does it mean to be someone's "muse"? Historically, to be called a “muse” among artistic circles has been marketed as a flattering title. It is a commendation that most often refers to a woman whose vivacity and beauty are the source of inspiration for a (usually) male artist or creator. Perhaps her inspiring presence is even credited in the story of his success. But the very concept of a muse underestimates these women and their abilities. At its root, muse is a support role, the title a consolation prize that claims to recognize a woman’s greatness—but only in her support of another.I'm Not Your Muse reclaims the narrative of 31 of these extraordinary women, from "The Mother of the Movies" Alice Guy-Blaché to Modernist designer Eileen Gray, prima ballerina Maria Tallchief, storied Harlem Renaissance editor Jessie Redmon Fauset, and many more. Each of these women advanced the narrative of culture and society, pushing the boundaries of visual arts, dance and movement, commercial architecture, music, journalism, and the performing arts. Whether by historical accident or cruel design, their contributions have historically been overshadowed by those of their male counterparts, and often collaborators. In this briskly written, incisively researched compendium, author and researcher Lori Zimmer repositions these women as the main characters of their own lives. Each profile is accented with original illustrations—including jaunty portraits in playfully constructed frames—by artist Maria Krasinski. Together, they highlight the contemporary accomplishments and historical legacies of a wide-ranging group of revolutionary women. Featured women include:  Louise Blanchard Bethune  Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore  Minnette de Silva  Clara Driscoll  Jessie Redmon Fauset  Loie Fuller  Martha Gellhorn    Eileen Gray  Belle da Costa Greene  Alice Guy-Blaché  Miss La La  Edmonia Lewis  Neysa McMein  Hildreth Meière  Lucia Moholy  May and Jane Morris    Na Hye-Sŏk  Fernande Olivier  Pan Yuliang    Ethel Reed    Clara Rockmore    Ada Bricktop Smith  Maria Tallchief  Alice B. Toklas  Suzanne Valadon    Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven  Leonora Carrington  Remedios Varo  Kati Horna

  Every life has trials. I just never thought mine would lead me to be the victim of an actual trial—a murder trial. Almost two years after that gun sounded, there we were hearing every detail of how he died over, and over, and over again. I had waited so long for the trial to be the pinnacle of my healing. I just knew deep down it would be the moment of peace I had longed for—but as that judge stood to announce the verdict, the emotions that followed were not any I could have ever planned. Truth is . . . nobody ever plans to be a victim. Ashlee shares intimate parts of her healing journey in her 3rd book, The Moments We Stand: In Chains. A murder trial, an interview with Keith Morrison, and sitting across from the secret mistress on the Dr. Phil show. Little did she know those moments were just the beginning of a long journey to finding freedom from the chains.
