"Elder Grace: The Nobility of Aging" presents monumental portrait
photographs of African Americans by the celebrated New York Times
photojournalist Chester Higgins Jr. Featuring women and men from all
walks of life, this highly acclaimed exhibition reveals the beauty,
dignity and energy of senior intelligence and experience. The show is a
rich tribute to older generations as a vital force in American life.
Co-curated by the artist, the show closed March 2001 at the New-York
Historical Society, where it received enthusiastic response from public
and critics alike.
The national tour of "Elder Grace" is sponsored
