Gwen Frostic
Description:
A short tribute film on Gwen Frostic, the legendary Michigan artist who died on April 25, 2001 — the day before her 95th birthday. Frostic was owner and president of a multi-million publishing company in Benzonia, Michigan. As a child, she contracted polio and it affected her walk and her speech. But it never affected her ability to create intricate designs faithful to nature. She continued to work until days before died. The interview with Frostic that I did for this film was done six months before her death. This film is narrated by my friend Huel Perkins. A film by Steve Palackdharry.
