At Twelve is a composite portrait that is both universal and intimately personal. As Ann Beattie writes in her perceptive introduction, These girls still exist in an innocent world in which a pose is only a pose--what adults make of that pose may be the issue. Sally Mann's work is in the collections of major museums across the country.

In one of my Tarot books they describe Sally Mann as the Queen of Swords. Queen of Swords has a notoriously bad rap as the Ice Queen, someone who is removed from the garden of earthly delights and blood and guts and fucking and everything else we love as mammals. The justification was something like ; Sally Mann is an artist first, before anything or anyone else. And so when she takes pictures of things she loves, like her children, she must remove herself, and function only as the artist, and not as a mother. She must not run to their attention when they cry, to bandage a cut or bruise, or nurse an aching tooth. Some would call this callous, but this is a woman who is devoted to her art and is a better artist because of it.

I agree. (

This book is for Larry, for his kindness and his intelligence and his great and generous heart.
And for my children, Emmett, Jessie and, eventually, Virginia, who accompanied me on these photographic forays as uncomplaining friends and unwaveringly direct critics.
