DANIEL RHODES DIXON is the elder son of two icons of the American art world, photographer DOROTHEA LANGE (1895-1965) and painter of the Southwest MAYNARD DIXON (1875-1946). As a child he came to recognize his parents’ extraordinary gifts. but his view of them changed dramatically during the Depression when he and his brother John were ‘farmed out’ to a series of foster homes, never knowing when they might see their parents again, while Lange and Dixon were in the field creating some of the most indelible images of the 20th Century. While telling the story of two of this country’s most original and maverick artists, CHILD OF GIANTS is also Daniel’s story — the story of a child who learns that his birthright comes with gifts and curses… the story of every child who must find his own path in life from under the shadow of formidable parents.
