www.southamericanpictures.com/features/feat2/mee.htmI first became introduced to Margaret Mee when my husband picked up a book by her which ended up becoming a major focus for me and remains so. Primarily known as a botanical artist (her prints are frequently advertised in the N.Y. Times),she explored the Amazon and wrote a wonderful detailed,beautifully illustrated book of her adventures.

This is fascinating -- talk about a Woman Traveler! Her looks are so interesting as well ~~ this is not how I envision someone who'd sit for hours on the damp ground with ants in her hair to capture the "cactus which opens at night and fades forever at dawn." >>
