MILLER, Lee

About the American photographer, Lee MILLER (1907 - 1977)

Lee MILLER began her artistic career in 1929 as a surrealist photographer in Paris. Mostly together with Man Ray she made pictures in which she alienated motifs by means of narrow image sections and experimental techniques. At the end of the Second World War, she traveled through Europe as a war correspondent. One of the most spectacular pictures was taken at the end of April 1945 in Adolf Hitler's city apartment on Prinzregentenplatz in Munich: there she was photographed naked in the dictator's bathtub - after she was one of the first photographers to photograph the crimes in the newly liberated Dachau and Buchenwald concentration camps had documented.
