University of Arizona to exhibit Linda McCartney photographs
TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) The University of Arizona announced Thursday that its Center for Creative Photography will host the North American premiere next year of The Linda McCartney Retrospective, celebrating her 30-year career as a photographer.
The exhibition will run from Feb. 24 until Aug. 5 and be free to the public, school officials said. They added that the retrospective on McCartney's career will also highlight her many ties to Tucson, where she died in 1998 from breast cancer at age 56.
McCartney took up photography as a hobby while attending the University of Arizona in the early 1960s, and many of her earliest photos have Tucsons Sonoran Desert as a backdrop.
She and her famous musician husband bought a 151-acre (61-hectare) ranch on Tucsons northeast side in 1979, a decade after getting married in London.
