Paige Smith Orloff invents sisterhood from scratch.
From the category archives:
HOW FAR WOULD you go for a sister? In a masterful stroke of synchronicity, that’s the question popping up every where in my life this week, from my guilty pleasure entertainment to my ongoing workshop in wholehearted living. Need a good test for the sister in your life? Read on. [click to continue…]

TO ALL THE SATC2-haters out there, to you I say: You’ve missed the point. I LOVED the new Sex and the City movie, and I’m not afraid to say it. [click to continue…]

From Poppy de Villeneuve's "You Are Everywere"
PROLIFIC PHOTOGRAPHER AND FILMMAKER Poppy de Villeneuve is at it again. Back in March we highlighted her first film for T , the New York Times style magazine. (All five parts of that film, The Park, are here.) Now she’s released another, You Are Everywhere, a stripped down, meditative, surprisingly intimate view of last year’s Coachella music festival. Like much of Poppy’s work, the film seems deeply influenced by Richard Avedon’s photographic collection, In the American West (one of my favorite art books, as it happens). Enjoy this poetic film, and for more on Poppy and her influences check out our profile of her and sister Daisy, an accomplished illlustrator.

'Thelma and Louise' is on my must-rewatch list this spring
I‘VE BEEN TRAVELING, a lot, lately, and can’t wait to settle back into what passes for a normal routine back on the home front. But my husband’s going to be out of town for work on and off for a while. Can you guess what that means? It’s all about control. [click to continue…]

SHIRLEY MACLAINE MAY be more famous these days for metaphysical musings than for movie stardom, but I can’t forget her indelible performances in some of my very favorite sister flicks. (Terms of Endearment? Steel Magnolias?) Today, for her 75th birthday, I want to toast Shirley MacLaine in a way I didn’t really have the chutzpah to do properly the one time I met her. Once upon a time, you see, I worked in Hollywood. [click to continue…]

THIS SAYS IT ALL ABOUT ME: Art by joeforte.com, husband of a friend.
First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.
