The Desk Officer Who Was Never in Her Office

It struck me that these black women were a unique group. The modern women’s movement hadn’t taken place yet, and they achieved these things at a time when the country was in turmoil. The country was not extending a hand, not saying, “Gee, we want you to come and show us your gifts and what you have to offer to us,” either because they were black or because they were women.

—Photographer Gerald Fraser, 1989, on his portraits in a Vanguard exhibit, I Dream a World
