Please See All Photos At Eighty-Five, Cory Ditchburn Has Finally Agreed To A Retrospective Of Her Art. For Years She Had Refused, Afraid That Any Summing Up Of Her Life's Work Would Mean She'd Never Work Again. But Now Vanity Has Won Out - Vanity And The Need To See It All One More Time.

Her Pictures Give Her Back The Story Of Her Past - From Her Beginnings In Pointe Au Baril, Ontario, A Place Of Rocky Islands And Forests; To Her Days In London, England, Where She Honed Her Skills As A Photographer And Met The Great Love Of Her Life; To War-Ravaged Europe Where She Worked As A War Correspondent For Lord Beaverbrook, Travelling With The Ranks Of Soldiers, Earning Fame As "The Girl Photographer"; To Her Self-Imposed Exile At A Fishing Cabin In Safe Harbour. Together, Cory And Tyke Retrace The Dramatic And Sometimes Painful Path That Has Led Them To The Present. Mother And Son Reclaim Each Other, And Relive An Extraordinary Woman's Life.
