About the book

A collection of striking moments drawn from the shared life of renowned Chicago photojournalist Art Shay and his beloved wife, Florence. By turns casual and glamorous, the photographs start the day Art and Florence met in 1942, as 20-year-old camp counsellors in the Catskill Mountains, and continue for seven decades, till her death from cancer at 90. Former LIFE magazine staff reporter Shay is famous for immortalising some of America's most compelling 20th century figures, but the story of Florence was Shay's constant beat. The result is a story that runs deep as a call to joy.
