"I've always felt successful. Even when I wasn't making any money, I just knew it was all there. I always believed in myself. I knew I had talent and there was just no doubt about it. I just didn't give up."

Photographs of Taos' Ledoux Street taken by Mildred Tolbert in 1968 show an exotic, charming, untamed, third-world, block-long, dirt path. The beginning of the street was lined exclusively with private residences with the exception of one gallery, The Navajo Gallery.   Its owner was Taos legend R.C. Gorman.

The end of the road led to what was then the Harwood Library - now the Harwood Museum of Art. Imagine the visitors to the gallery trudging down the little street with no parking and no signage - the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie Onassis, Arnold Schwartzenegger, Tab Hunt   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 21892 characters.]  Artist bio
