Live Nude Girl: My Life As an Object

Live Nude Girl is a lively meditation on the profession of nude modelling-that "spine-tingling combination of power and vulnerability, submission and dominance"-as it has been practised in history and as it is practised today. Kathleen Rooney draws on her own experiences working as an artist's model, as well as on the stories of famous, notorious, and mysterious artists and models through the ages.
