“Anne Truitt has been my lodestar throughout my life as a writer. To hear her voice once more in this exquisite selection of her personal writings is a gift beyond measure. Truitt’s searching intellect, wise heart, and disciplined attention to her own artistic sensitivities are profoundly instructive. This book will interest Truitt scholars and art historians, to be sure, but it really should be required reading for anyone embarking on a creative life.”—Dani Shapiro, author of Inheritance

“A precedent without peer and an archival treasure, Always Reaching presents the writing and thinking of someone deeply engaged in the art world of her time.”—Suzanne Hudson, University of Southern California
