Among the artists featured are: Ansel Adams (obituary), Romare Bearden (obituary), Margaret Bourke-White, Alexander Calder (obituary), Marc Chagall (obituary), Helen Frankenthaler, Jasper Johns, Jacob Lawrence, Henry Moore (obituary), Grandma Moses (obituary), Louise Nevelson (obituary), Georgia O'Keeffe (obituary), Gordon Parks, I.
