The Long Shadow: Unwrapped ~ Marion Post Wolcott’s Labor and Love reveals the unpublished life and images of the American photographer Marion Post Wolcott, the first woman hired full-time as a photographer for the Farm Security Administration in 1938. Three years later, having made more than 9,000 pictures, Wolcott received ultimatums from her husband, Lee Wolcott, and boss, Roy Stryker: choose love or photography. Wolcott quit her job and spent eleven years managing three dairy farms in rural Virginia. One assumed that Wolcott gave up photographing. That assumption was wrong.
Drawing from Wolcott’s archive of unseen intimate portraits and through conversations with her family, Odette England juxtaposes them with her photographs and prose rewritten from interviews and historical records.
