So happy you recognize Karen's contribution.I'm getting a whole new perspective and admiration for Karen Radkai from your recent posts. Thank you
I had always known her husband Paul to be the famous fashion photographer of the late 40s, early 50s and read how Karen had made herself very unpopular by insisting the top models pose for her after doing a job with Paul. She wanted to develop her portfolio for Vogue so only wanted to use the best models but the models resented it because she would use them for free but felt obliged because Paul was such a famous photographer. But seeing her work here makes me realize she was soooo much better than Paul!So happy you recognize Karen's contribution.
