An interesting woman.

Diane Arbus, from Wikipedia:

In 1956, Diane Arbus quit the commercial photography business.[6] Although earlier she had studied photography with Berenice Abbott, her studies with Lisette Model beginning in 1956 led to Arbus's most well-known methods and style.[6] She began photographing on assignment for magazines such as Esquire, Harper's Bazaar, and The Sunday Times Magazine in 1959.[7] Approximately 1962, Arbus switched from a 35mm Nikon camera which produced grainy rectangular images to a twin-lens reflex Rolleiflex camera which produced more detailed square images.[4][7][19]

In 1963 Arbus was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for a project on "American rites, manners, and customs";[20] the fellowship was renewed in 1966.[9] In 1964 Arbus began using a twin-lens reflex Mamiya camera with flash in addition to the Rolleiflex.[4] Her methods included establishing a strong personal relationship with her subjects and re-photographing some of them over many years.[7][10]

During the 1960s, she taught photography at the Parsons School of Design and the Cooper Union in New York City, and the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, Rhode Island.[14][21] The first major exhibition of her photographs occurred at the Museum of Modern Art in a 1967 show called "New Documents" which was curated by John Szarkowski and which also featured the work of Garry Winogrand and Lee Friedlander.[11] Some of her artistic work was done on assignment.[11]

Although she continued to photograph on assignment (e.g., in 1968 she shot documentary photographs of poor sharecroppers in rural South Carolina for Esquire magazine[22]), in general her magazine assignments decreased as her fame as an artist increased.[7] Szarkowski hired Arbus in 1970 to research an exhibition on photojournalism called "From the Picture Press"; it included many photographs by Weegee whose work Arbus admired.[14][16][23]

He weighed about 35 pounds, and she weighed 6, tiny little thing. In their old age, they moved to their respective corners and didn't enter each others territory.

When he died, she did take over his turf though, the little brat. She wasn't too many years behind him in getting to the Rainbow Bridge.

She was quite a bossy little girl. When Hubby and I got married, we had our honeymoon in Puerto Vallarta. To save time the day we left, we spent the night before at Mom and Dad's because their place was closer to the airport, and besides, they came with us. They, and my brother, his partner, my sister and her friend, and Hubby's brother and his girlfriend.

During the night, we kept pushing "each other" to the edges of the bed, we thought. The next morning, there was Loa, stretched out as far as she could be, crosswise on the bed, having pushed us toward the edges so that we were barely hanging on. We laughed.
