As part of the virtual vernissage for our exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Estrellita Karsh spoke with Mary-Dailey Desmarais, Chief Curator. Mrs. Karsh reveals insights into Yousuf’s early life, and how the two of them met, when she was a medical writer and Karsh came to photograph Dr. Walter Alvarez, the doctor with whom she worked at the time.

If you can make it to Montreal between now and January 30, 2022, book your tickets ahead of time. For those who can’t, enjoy some of the press cover, or visit the Museum’s website.
