In recent years Janice Van Horne edited two books assembled from Clement Greenberg's archive at the Getty Research Library; The Harold Letters and Homemade Esthetics, designated a New York Times book of the year. She lives in New York City, in the same apartment she and Clem moved into in 1960.
Praise for A Complicated Marriage
"Janice Van Horne's new memoir reveals a fresh perspective that
sheds light on the interior life of Clement Greenberg, not only as
the esteemed art critic but as a husband, lover, and off and on
companion of nearly 40 years." —East Hampton Star
Praise for The Harold Letters
"Janice Van Horne has created a little treasure from these letters
. . . original in every way." —Helen Frankenthaler, Partisan
Review
"The Harold Letters distinguishes itself from other, more
fallacious personal histories; his honesty unabashedly reveals the
kind of unspeakable, grandiose desires that we all have for
ourselves." —The New York Times Book Review
"In addition to chronicling Greenberg's zigzag journey to his true
vocation, this fascinating volume also offers graphic snapshots of
his busy life, vivid evocations of the urban American landscape,
and what may be one of the best, most frank depictions of what it
was like to be a struggling Jewish intellectual in the U.S. during
the Great Depression." —Raphael Rubinstein, Art in America
