The work of Lee Miller, one of only four female American correspondents during World War II, is examined alongside the photographs of contemporary war photographer, Nicole Tung. Antony Penrose, Lee Miller’s son, will speak with the American photojournalist about the evolution of the profession, the difficulties the job entails, and other gripping topics.

• Lee Miller (born 1907 in Poughkeepsie, New York – died July 21, 1977, Chiddingly UK) began covering World War II in December 1942 as a photojournalist for Vogue. Leaving behind her past life as a model (she had also posed for Steichen), she moved to the front lines of WWII in Europe, where she even took photographs in Luxembourg, some of which are now part of the CNA collection.
• Antony Penrose (born in 1947) is a filmmaker, author, lecturer, artist, photographer, and co-founder of the Lee Miller Archives.
• Nicole Tung (born in 1986) is an American citizen born and raised in Hong Kong, now living in Istanbul, Turkey. She graduated from New York University with a double major in history and journalism. Her work has documented conflicts in Libya and Syria, the pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, and the refugee crisis in Europe, among other events. She has received multiple awards for her work, including from the International Photo Awards, the Society of Professional Journalists, and PX3, and was named PDN’s 30 Under 30 Emerging Photographers in 2013.
