Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Renowned photographer Lauren Greenfield has won acclaim and awards for her studies of youth culture. In 'Girl Culture', she combines a photojournalists sense of story with fine-art composition and color to create an astonishing and intelligent exploration of American girls. Her photographs provide a window into the secret worlds of girls social lives and private rituals, the dressing room and locker room, as well as the iconic subcultures of the popular clique: cheerleaders, showgirls, strippers, debutantes, actresses, and models. With 100 hypnotic photographs, 20 interviews with the subjects, and an introduction by foremost historian of American girlhood Joan Jacobs Brumberg, Greenfield reveals the exhibitionist nature of modern femininity and how far it has drifted from the feminine ideologies of the past.

The traveling exhibition ... [was] organized by the Center for Creative Photography, the University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona ... [and] will begin the national tour as the inaugural venue from October 5 to December 8, 2002.
