Ruth Bernhard (1905-2006) was the daughter of Lucien Bernhard, a graphic designer known as "the father of the German poster." After studying for two years at the Berlin Academy of Art, she came to New York in 1927 and worked briefly in Ralph Steiner's studio; she bought her first camera the next year. Her first serious photograph, Lifesavers, interested Vogue's art director, Dr. M.F. Agha, and he arranged for its publication in Advertising Art in 1931; many photography assignments in advertising and industrial design photography followed. In 1934, she photographed the Museum of Modern Art's Machine Art exhibition and began the photographs of nudes for which she is best known. Subject/Title: In The Circle. Date Of Negative: 1934.
