But the book begins at the peak of excitement (´She won!´) and immediately falls into a description of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial competition that fails to hold interest or build a strong storyline. Ling provides good context for Maya´s work with information about her family and childhood, but the complete lack of family photos is surprising. For instance, a discussion of Henry Lin´s ceramic artwork is illustrated with a generic photograph of an unidentified artist.
One mistake: Maya graduated from Athens High School in June,1977.. And summed up by saying Could have been better .. Currently Maya Lin (Contemporary Biographies) has an overall rating of 6 over 10.
