Page ix Acknowledgments I extend grateful acknowledgment to my family for their understanding and support: my husband Jacques for his countless hours of help with formatting and printing; my son Pierre, who gave me frequent-flyer tickets for Buenos Aires; and my daughter Laurence, who checked my syntax and meticulously copyedited with the eye of a linguistics expert. I especially thank Mona Harrington for her painstaking reading, excellent suggestions, and unfailing moral support; Martha Collins for her careful reading and helpful suggestions; Molly Lyndon Shanley for her reading and support; Ludmilla Mim for her translation of my correspondence; Hctor and Primi Mohina for the loan of videos and the hours of watching their videos of the Mothers at their home in Buenos Aires; the Mothers' photojournalists for sharing their work; Carmen d'Elia for sharing her special insights and experience; and Kevin Noblet and Oscar Serrat of the Associated Press. The assistance of Christopher Keith Hall of Amnesty International is also greatly appreciated. I gratefully acknowledge the support and encouragement provided by the Wellesley College Center for Research on Women from 1989 to 1992, the Women's Studies program at Brandeis University, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, and, for the time and space to write the final draft, the Leighton Artists Colony, Banff Centre for the Arts.
