Description

Pauline Leader (October 16, 1908–July 13, 2001) was a writer and poet, noted for her memoir, And No Birds Sing, which chronicles her growing up in Bennington, Vermont as an outcast daughter of Jewish immigrants and her bohemian life in Greenwich Village, subsequent to becoming deaf at age 12. Her work pioneered understanding the perspective of people with disabilities and represented a step towards recognizing the need to accommodate them in society.

This portrait by her lover, Henry Lavarack, appeared on the cover of both the 1931 and 2016 editions of her book, "And No Birds Sing".
