In this special episode from our ArtMuse ArtTalks series, host Grace Anna is joined by the acclaimed author Francine Prose, who wrote "The Lives of the Muses: Nine Women and the Artists They Inspired", a groundbreaking collection of the life stories of nine female muses, including Elizabeth Siddall and Gala Dali, whom we have full ArtMuse episodes on, as well as Hester Thrale, Alice Liddell, Lou Andreas-Salome, Lee Miller, Chris Weston, Suzanne Farrell, and Yoko Ono. Throughout the course of the interview, Grace Anna asks Francine Prose about what inspired her to write "The Lives of the Muses", which women’s stories resonated with her the most, the integral role the muse plays in the the creation of works of art, and the importance of sharing these women’s stories with the world and honoring their immense legacies.
