This video is a natural following to last week's show on August Sander. Diane Arbus considered Sander to be her biggest influence. There are some really interesting similarities in their work - threads of commonality, though these two photographers both have very distinctive styles.
Diane Arbus was born in 1923 to a very wealthy family in New York. She married her childhood sweetheart, Allan Arbus in 1941 and the two of them ran a successful photography studio together shooting portrait and editorial work for magazines. They were credited a photograph in the Edward Steichen 1955 "Family of Man" exhibit. They separated in 1959 - Allan went on to become an actor most notably the psychiatrist in the TV show MASH.
