      abstract = {"Diane Arbus was one of the most brilliant and revered  photographers in the history of American art. Her  portraits, in stark black and white, seemed to reveal the  psychological truths of their subjects. But after she  committed suicide at the age of 48 in 1971, the presumed  chaos and darkness of her own inner life became, for many  viewers, inextricable from her work. ... [This book]  reveals the creative and personal struggles of Diane Arbus.  [The author] veers from traditional biography to interpret  Arbus's life through the prism of four central mysteries:  her outcast affinity, her sexuality, the secrets she kept  and shared, and her suicide. He seeks not to diagnose  Arbus, but to discern some of the private motives behind  her public works and acts. In this approach, [the author]  not only goes deeper into her life than any previous  writer, but provides a template with which to think about  the creative life in general."--Book jacket.},
