Photo Essay

W
hat I find unique and interesting about Terlingua are the
people, especially, the women. Big Bend is a hard and unfor-
giving land and the women here give lie to any notion of “the
weaker sex.”
I asked several Terlingua women to allow me to photograph them
as they worked. All of them have the strong character and determina-
tion of spirit which is needed to make an independent life here in the
West Texas Desert.
