Lee Miller; Marion Morehouse, by Cecil Beaton


Lee Miller
Elizabeth "Lee" Miller, Lady Penrose (April 23, 1907 – July 21, 1977), was an American photographer. She was a fashion model in New York City in the 1920s before going to Paris, where she became a fashion and fine art photographer. During the Second World War, she was a war correspondent for Vogue, covering events such as the London Blitz, the liberation of Paris, and the concentration camps at Buchenwald and Dachau.
Marion Morehouse
Marion Morehouse rose to prominance in the late 20s and early 30s, sitting for Vanity Fair and Vogue photographer Edward Steichen. She become one of the first publically known and recognized fashion models based largely on those appearances.
She is perhaps best known as e.e. cummings third wife, whom she met in 1932. Although it is not clear whether the two were ever legally married, Morehouse lived with cummings until his death in 1962. She died seven years later at the Greenwich Village apartment they had shared.
