The series of images, by photographer Anita Corbin, herself a Putney Alumna, and the artist behind the critically acclaimed Visible Girls and First Women UK exhibitions, acknowledges the achievements of a range of exceptional alumnae who all display the same indomitable Putney spirit that is so present in today’s generation of Putney pupils.
Commenting on her subjects, Anita Corbin said, “All these women, and the many that aren’t featured here, have a great deal in common. They have all gone on to find their own distinct pathways. The teachers at Putney treated us as independent young women and encouraged us to see beyond the stereotypes – we were taught that anything and everything was within our grasp.”
