Whatever you may think of her political couleur she was still an excellent photographer. I believe Karen Szekessy may belong to this illustrious few too,then there's that NY lady , whose name escapes me at the moment, Bettina Rheims? Maybe quite a few others too. The avantgarde and "Moderne" art scenes brought forth quite a few well, and lesser, known names. I believe they all used Leicas at some time in their careers. Lee Miller, Gis?le Freund, Berenice Abott, Marianne Breslauer, Florence Henri, Germaine Krull, Claude Cahun, R? Soupault, Dora Maar, Ilse Bing, Lisa Schlansker Kolosek and Th?r?se Bonney. There are doubtless many more.
