Front Street Books owner Jean Hardy-Pittman is originally from Houston but visited the Big Bend National Park as a kid in 1954. West Texas made such an impression on her that it never quite left her imagination.

Carrying her Brownie camera on that family vacation, Hardy-Pittman photographed the native plants, exotic to the native Houstonian.
