A "compelling" biography of the brilliant abstract expressionist painter who was far more than just Mrs. Jackson Pollock (Los Angeles Times).

Lee Krasner is best known as the artist-wife of Jackson Pollock, the renowned abstract expressionist painter. Yet in this riveting biography, the first full-length account of her colorful life, Krasner emerges as a significant artist who deserves her place in the twentieth century’s cultural lexicon.

In this captivating book, art historian Gail Levin probes Krasner’s relationship with Pollock, examining how this strong woman struggled to meet the challenges of their poverty, as well as her husband’s alcoholism and extramarital affair, all the while encouraging his art. Drawing on new sources and numerous personal interviews—including with Krasner herself—Levin has written a dynamic and moving portrait of a brilliant woman, a most welcome work that recovers Krasner’s voice and allows us to understand how her life intersected with and informed her art.
