Intrigued by the author's name Jack Tworkov, a name familiar to modern painters. if it's the same Tworkov he was one of the Abstract Expressionists, who forged a new frontier for American painting in the 1950's and 60's. Like the illustrator Roger Duvoisin Tworkov was an immigrant who made an outstanding contribution. Duvoisin had a great career as an author illustrator http://eclipse.rutgers.edu/goose/zam/duvbio.aspx. <br />But after a bit of research it remains hard to know if the Jack Tworkov who wrote The Camel who Took a Walk is the same Jack Tworkov who American Painters continue to thank for his contributions to the field of art, today.Sjeddy Fargionenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007703247358638748.post-22066282424889534082012-05-07T06:51:04.280-04:002012-05-07T06:51:04.280-04:00So sorry if you were having problems!
