While she was in New York City in the early 1940s, Leonora Carrington was one of a group of friends who set out to rank their favorite mythical creatures. The results were published in the June 1942 edition of the magazine VVV.

Refugees fleeing in Europe, from "Out of This World," my picture book bio of , illustrated by Amanda Hall. Thought of her while watching - which I enjoyed despite its cornball moments.
