Walking with The Murderers Are Among Us
Henry Ries (1917–2004), a celebrated American-German photojournalist, was born into an upper-class Jewish family in Berlin. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1938 to escape Nazi Germany. As a new American citizen, he joined the U.S. Air Force.

O'Keeffe appropriated ideas from the Freudian mode of psychoanalysis adopted by her husband and others-who interpreted her work as embodying the female principle-as a means of turning the tables and criticizing their com…
