How did a twenty-five year old Jewish refugee with no formal photography training become 'one half of' the most famous war photojournalist in history - and how was she erased so quickly after her death?
Returning guest Kip Wilson introduces us to Gerda Taro, the subject of her newest novel-in-verse One Last Shot.
Music featured in this episode was provided by Trialogo, The Mini Vandals, Sir Cubworth, Doug Maxwell, Aaron Kenny, and Esther Abrami.
