Sister Wendy - In Conversation with Bill Moyers, 1997


"In 1991 Sister Wendy made her first appearance on the BBC in a documentary on the National Gallery. This was followed by Sister Wendy's Odyssey, six ten-minute films in which she discovered hidden art treasures around Britain. Her next series, Sister Wendy's Grand Tour, took her throughout Europe; along the way, Sister Wendy developed a loyal and enthusiastic following among British and European art lovers. That popularity soared to new heights in 1997 when Sister Wendy's Story of Painting introduced the engaging art historian to a whole new audience of American art enthusiasts and won praise from both television viewers and critics alike. Sister Wendy's art appreciation is not limited, however, to television. The author of more than fifteen books -- including Contemporary Women Artists and Art and the Sacred -- Sister Wendy continues to write for several art magazines." - PBS, 2001/02?
