Carol Vontobel

A wonderful and humorous example of early image processing, Parry Teasdale and Carol Vontobel perform to camera as their faces are morphed together, forming an image of one person. The exercise is repeated by Nancy Cain and Skip Blumberg as the music speeds up.

In conversation with Carol Vontobel (behind the camera) and Nancy Cain, Mary Curtis Ratcliff describes getting her first legal abortion soon after the state of New York legalised the procedure in 1970. Curtis supplies details of the cost of abortions at the Women’s Medical Center in NYC, versus clinics such as Planned Parenthood, as well as a play-by-play account of her experience.
