Alma Reed

Alma Marie Sullivan Reed (1889–1966) was an American journalist. While working in Mexico in the 1920s, she fell in love with the Governor of Yucatán, Felipe Carrillo Puerto; however, he was assassinated while she was home in San Francisco preparing for their wedding. Reed was a promoter of the career of Mexican muralist José Clemente Orozco and wrote the first monograph on the artist in 1932, as well as a biography about his life. She also wrote more generally on Mexican muralists. Provided by Wikipedia
