Lee Miller Day celebrates resilience, creativity, curiosity and the courage to forge one’s own path.
Lee Miller was a photographer, model, and war correspondent who made significant contributions to 20th-century photography through her artistic vision and impactful work.
Beginning her career as a fashion model, she transitioned to the other side of the lens, becoming a protege and collaborator of surrealist artist Man Ray. Together, they experimented with photographic techniques, and Miller played a pivotal role in refining and advancing the rayograph (photogram) process.
During World War II, Miller served as a correspondent for Vogue, capturing hauntingly raw images of the front lines, the liberation of concentration camps, and the aftermath of war. Her work juxtaposed beauty and brutality, reflecting her unique ability to document humanity in its most profound moments.
