Blind spinning girl - Rangoon
Blind spinning girl - Rangoon - Kemmendine School for the Blind I asked if the girls would let me take their pictures and the matron spread a mat under a tree and the sweet faced girl who winds the bobbins on her hand, operated the wheel, moved her spindles and thread out, her face all smiles. Just as I was about to snap it, she remembered her hair was down loose and gathered it into a knot, to look pretty. Then the others joined her with knitting, crochet, and a large book of Braille. They all seemed pleased by the attention, as careful of their looks as though they could see. Date: 1952
