A septuagenarian woman in St. Louis facing deficits in upbringing and the limits imposed on her by individuals and culture, defeats naysayers and professional and personal obstacles by creating a life of her own choosing through miniature-making.
Joanne Martin: A Life in Miniature is about a woman from St. Louis, Missouri who has been a miniaturist, a businesswoman, a museum president, a Girl Scout leader, a teacher, a student, a mother, a daughter, and most of all, an indomitable human spirit.
