TIFFANY GIRL Named as One of USA Today's

*MUST READS OF THE YEAR*

Gist aptly describes the work of artist Louis Tiffany as both vibrant and resplendent ... these words easily apply to Gist’s work, as well ... The historical details are absorbing, never intrusive and always eye-opening ... The characterization is rich and authentic ... The narrative is a treat, the tempo impeccable.
USA Today, Kathy Altman

TIFFANY GIRL Touted As *VIBRANT & TEXTURED*

by National Public Radio

This peek into Tiffany’s glass empire is vibrant and textured ... I enjoyed Gist’s literary stroll through a near-forgotten time, and her celebration of the triumph of the Tiffany Girls. I love the reminder of what came before — in a professional sense, in a fashion sense; regarding propriety and society ... Gist does an amazing job.
NPR Books, Bobbi Dumas
