Richard Avedon was an American fashion and portrait photographer. He started of working as a photographer for the Merchant Marines, taking identification photos. Munkacsi was a newspaper writer and photographer in Hungary, specializing in sports.

His grandfather and uncle both did a career containing art. It was just in his blood. Africa pushed him to the direction of photography. When he returned to France he bought a 35mm, a camera that helped define his photography. By the mid 1930s his work was shown in exhibits in Mexico, New York, and Madrid. Fatima Garibay
