                  1999 Florida Artists' Book Prize

The Bienes Center for the Literary Arts (Broward County Library,
Ft. Lauderdale, FL) and the Florida Center for the Book are pleased
to annouce that:

Susan M. Urbanek, an art professor from Oakland Park, Florida, is the
1999 winner of the $2000 annual  Florida Artists' Book Prize.

Her winning book, entitled "We Come Out As We Are Needed," uses
narrative and photographs taken in Fort Lauderdale to tell a story
of political protest. The work was judged to be "of exceptional
quality both for its visual appeal and its captivating yet vexing
narrative."

     Oakland Park, FL; 1999. -- 1 v. (unpaged); 26 x 29 x 2.5 cm.
