Shooting Women: Behind the Camera,
Around the World
by Harriet Margolis, Alexis Krasilovsky,
and Julia Stein (Intellect Press: London - 2015)
Shooting Women takes readers around the world to explore the lives of camerawomen working in features, TV news, and documentaries. From first-world pioneers like African American camerawoman Jessie Maple Patton who got her job only after suing the union to China’s first camerawomen who traveled with Mao, to rural India where poor women have learned camerawork as a means of empowerment to leading women documentary makers around the world, "Shooting Women" reveals a world of women working with courage and skill in what has long been seen as a male field."
