Jessica Tan Gudnason is an artist whose work explores two great traditions in opera, Eastern and Western. Her first book, Chinese Opera (Abbeville, 2001) included an essay by the movie star Gong Li. A welcome figure backstage at the great opera houses around the world, she dedicated four years to collecting the portraits in this volume.
