Womanica - Ein Podcast von iHeartPodcasts and Wonder Media Network

Augusta Savage (1892-1962) was a Black American sculptor during  the Harlem Renaissance. She was commissioned to create busts of W.E.B Dubois, Marcus Garvey, and a pinnacle piece in the 1939 World’s Fair. Although talented and well known, she was poor and unable to preserve her pieces, many of which are now lost to history.
