It only took me seven years to get around to reading this book but I am so glad I did. Lee Miller was better known for being a model and her associations with artists when she became the first American female war correspondent in 1944. This collection of her writings and photographs for Vogue from was compiled by her son who had no idea of his mother‘s war reporting until finding her papers well after her death. #24in2024

Texreader What a great photo!! I love that women were war correspondents. Absolutely incredible that her son didn‘t know about it! 3mo
Jas16 @Texreader He said that growing up she never talked about the war. I cannot imagine finding out something so huge when she is not around to ask about it. Her reporting was really wonderful too. 3mo

For today's #readerschoice I am choosing today's #bookmail. Model and muse, Lee Miller may not have been the most predictable choice for first American female war correspondent but in 1944 she became just that. This book is a collection of some of her writings and photographs from 1944-1945. #readingwomenmonth
