Laura Adams Armer
Laura Adams Armer (January 12, 1874 – March 16, 1963)〔(The Humboldt Arts Council in the Morris Graves Museum of Art )〕 was an American artist and writer. In 1932, her novel ''Waterless Mountain'' won the Newbery Medal. She was also an early photographer in San Francisco, California.
==Biography==
Armer was born Laura May Adams in Sacramento, California. While studying at the California School of Design in San Francisco, she met her future husband, Sidney Armer. From around 1900, she had her own business in the city as a portrait photographer and displayed her works at exhibitions. Her photographs of San Francisco's Chinatown (c. 1900) are in the collection of the California Historical Society.
Her special interest in the Navajo and the Southwestern United States led to a silent film ''The Mountain Chant'' (1928) and to photographs of the day-to-day activities of the Navajo including sandpainting. Armer was a successful writer, winning the Newbery Medal for her children's book about the Navajo: ''Waterless Mountain'' in 1931.〔(Peter Palmquist, "Laura May (Adams) Armer (active 1899-1930's)" ), in ''100 Years of California Photography by Women: 1850-1950''.
