Join us to celebrate the incredible life and legacy of photographer, model and war correspondent, Lee Miller. From modelling in fashion magazines to working with Man Ray and photographing on the frontline of WWII for Vogue, Miller led many extraordinary lives.
Antony Penrose and Ami Bouhassane, the son and granddaughter of Miller, will be joined by the V&A’s Parasol Foundation Curator of Women in Photography, Fiona Rogers to discuss Miller’s life and legacy, and including their work as co-directors of Farleys House and Gallery which manages the Lee Miller Archives. The talk follows on from the recent release of the film LEE, starring Kate Winslet, which was based on Penrose’s book The Lives of Lee Miller.
Penrose will also be signing copies of his books, following the talk.
