Lida Moser 1920-2014
Lida Moser (' s) genre-spanning photographs appeared in magazines like Look, Esquire and Vogue during their heyday in the 1950s and ’60s
(...)
In the late 1940s Ms. Moser became a member of the Photo League, a loose-knit cooperative of photographers, including Berenice Abbott and Weegee (the pseudonym of Arthur Fellig), dedicated to capturing the reality of life in New York.
Ms. Moser excelled at photojournalism at a time when women were a rarity in the field.
Vogue sent her to Britain to photograph artists and writers in 1949, and then to Quebec in 1950 to capture life in its rural towns.
