Margaret Bourke White by Vicki Goldberg
This biography delves into the life and career of a pioneering female photojournalist who broke through gender barriers to become the first female war correspondent and the first woman to be allowed to work in combat zones during World War II. Her iconic images, from the haunting photos of the Great Depression to the harrowing visuals of the liberation of concentration camps, have left an indelible mark on the collective consciousness. The book not only explores her professional achievements and the historical significance of her work but also provides insight into her personal life, her struggles, and the indomitable spirit that drove her to capture some of the twentieth century's most important moments through her lens.
