Why Were Women Ever Called The Weak Sex?


In 1982, on assignment to illustrate a Time-Life book on Brazil’s Yanomami Indians, I shared those wonderful people’s lives for a month. Thanks to Bruce Albert, a young anthropologist who spoke their language and was deeply loved by them, I never missed a good photo opportunity.  The book was part of a series called People of the Wild.
