  Remembering Inge Morath
Inge Morath, who died too soon last week at the age of seventy-eight, was a subtle and evocative photographer who used her camera as a means of celebrating what she respected and valued: civilization, artistic achievement, the splendor of women, the significance of place.
Morath started as an editor, but soon afterward surprised them all with a set of photographs she took in Spain as a lark.
Morath remained a keen student: she was already fluent in German, French, English and Spanish yet studied in-depth the cultures she photographed, even learning difficult languages like Mandarin and Russian.

 Telegraph | News | Inge Morath
INGE MORATH, the photographer who has died aged 78, was one of the finest photo-journalists of her generation; she worked for the international photo-agency Magnum for nearly 50 years, and was also noted for the books she produced in collaboration with her husband, the playwright Arthur Miller.
As the daughter of the science professor Edgar Morath, "Inge" was a member of the Austrian haute bourgeoisie but, when she was a child, the family moved to Germany.
Inge Morath was an assiduous worker - she was on top of a tall crane taking photographs in Brooklyn Navy Yard only four hours before going into labour with her daughter.

 Inge Morath
World famous photographer Inge Morath, who died at the end of January 2002, journeyed through the borderland between southern Styria and Slovenia searching for clues to her own origins and the interaction of history, daily life and culture in the border area.
For Morath, who in her varied photographic work (including jobs with international magazines such as Magnum, Life, Paris Match and Vogue), always tried to capture human aspects and everyday life rather than spectacular events, it was also a search for her own roots.
For the globe-trotter Morath, this project was also a trip through her own past, to the home of her ancestors and a house in the vineyards that had been a life-long friend.

Inge Morath, who has died of lymphatic cancer aged 78, was a photographer with two of the earliest leading photo agencies, Magnum and Report.
Morath was punished for refusing to join the Hitler Youth by being given forced labour at Tempelhof airport; this was exhausting and dangerous work, as it was a repeated Allied target.
Morath extended her travels to Asia, pursued eastern philosophy, taught herself Mandarin, and, in 1979, accompanied Miller to China for the staging of his Death Of A Salesman, a trip that generated two further books: Chinese Encounters (1979) and Salesman In Beijing (1984).

Morath, a photojournalist married to Arthur Miller, began her career as an assistant to Henri Cartier-Bresson in the early 1950s.

Many have the candid but noninstrusive aspect of a personal snapshot, and, in an afterword, Morath recalls the stories behind the pictures, much as one would in turning the pages of a family album.

Morath's Russia is devoid of Soviet excresence: no ugly concrete apartment blocks, Stalinist skyscrapers, or exhortative banners appear.
