In recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, today we spotlight Frida Kahlo, born Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón was a Mexican painter who is best known for her symbolic self-portraits and her unique folk style.  Through her life and work, she has become a feminist symbol of creativity, breaking social norms, and Mexican identity.  Kahlo’s fame has continued to grow after her death, and her art is celebrated as a representation of the human spirit.
