"Without Betty Parsons and her gallery, it is doubtful whether Abstract Expressionism would have been recognized in America as early and enthusitically as it was. How this tiny, reclusive woman from a very proper New York society family came to champion the then struggling avant-garde is a little known but vital chapter in postwar cultural history ... The unique story of this pioneering woman is essential for an understanding of that state of American art yesterday and today." - from dustjacket.
