New Yorker Elizabeth ‘Lee’ Miller was a model for Vogue and Vanity Fair but then moved to Paris to study photography. She moved to London just as WW2 broke out and as a middle-aged woman she refused to simply be remembered as a model and muse. Instead, she defied social expectations and travelled Europe, reporting from the frontline, and covering events such as the London Blitz, the liberation of Paris and the concentration camps at Dachau and Buchenwald. Her work was shown in British Vogue and the terrible images she captured changed perceptions of the war and brought home the atrocities of the concentration camps. Her work changed war photography forever, but Lee paid a huge personal price for the stories she fought so hard to tell.
