Description from the seller
You're bidding on two books by Inge Morath.
Inge Morath's curiosity, compassion, and bravery made her one of the 20th century’s greatest photographers.
One of the first women to join the Magnum collective, Morath was a superb portraitist, particularly drawn to artists, such as painter Saul Steinberg, sculptor Louise Bourgeois, and writer Boris Pasternak. She worked mainly in black-and-white but also used color film exquisitely, even early in her career. Through Magnum assignments to document film sets she met the late playwright Arthur Miller and their subsequent marriage lasted for forty years. Miller, speaking of his wife, said “She made poetry out of people and their places over half a century.”
