Description
Giving Birth: A Collective Portrait captures the power, vulnerability, and wonder of childbirth through the lens of acclaimed photographer and oral historian Mary Motley Kalergis. Pairing striking black-and-white portraits with the unfiltered words of women recounting their labor and delivery experiences, the book offers a rare and deeply human glimpse into one of life's most profound moments.
This volume-part of the Building a Family series-traces the universal yet intensely personal act of bringing new life into the world. Each story reveals not only the physical realities of labor but also the emotional truths of anticipation, fear, resilience, and love. From quiet moments of intimacy to dramatic deliveries, Kalergis' work honors the courage of mothers and families across America.
Originally published in 1983 and now reissued in a beautifully reimagined edition, Giving Birth remains as moving and relevant as ever-an enduring testament to women's strength and the transformative power of new beginnings.
