About this audiobook
When Maya Lin was a senior at Yale University, she entered a contest. It was a contest to design what would become a well-known American landmark: the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. Lin never dreamed she would win the contest. But she did. Her design received much praise, however, it also set off angry protests. As one of America's greatest living artists, Lin continues to create remarkable pieces of art.

American painter and silhouettist Kara Walker rose to international acclaim at the age of 28 as one of the youngest-ever recipients of a MacArthur Genius grant. Appearing in exhibitions, museums, and public collections worldwide, Walker’s work wrestles with the ongoing psychological injury caused by the legacy of slavery.
