About this listen

On November 20th, 2019, the City of Los Angeles will celebrate Corita Day in honor of the most acclaimed artist you've never heard of: Sister Mary Corita / Corita Kent. Corita spent the first part of her life at LA's Immaculate Heart Community, educating students and celebrities alike with spectacular silkscreen and pop art. Eames and Hitchcock and Fuller and Cage were all her contemporaries and she designed one of the top selling US Postage Stamps of all time, yet for some reason, she's not as well known as she should be. This program aims to change that. Please listen, as it's an amazing story.
