Darkness into Light

The story of Theodora Lowery's poverty-stricken childhood in a Colorado mining town where her mother dreamed of glamour and died to give her daughter a chance at that dream. Theodora grows up living a life of luxury as a ward of the spoiled actress and New York socialite, Fiona Randall, and the protegee of carefree Evan Randall, and eventually falls in love with a man she could not have. In both America in the early 1930's and during the Spanish Civil War, Theodora is a socially concerned photographer who is one with a people eager to live and willing to die for justice and freedom. In an age when those around her didn't know fantasy from truth, Theodora's camera helped her perceive all of life as she sought the courage to turn her dreams into luminous reality.
