The Austrian image-maker was one of the first female members of Magnum Photos in the 1950s
‘Egni Tharom’ was the name Morath used initially when sending – and selling – her photographs to publications, and after building confidence working as a photographic assistant and completing personal work in her own time, she showed Robert Capa her series capturing working Catholic priests in Paris. By 1955, photographer Morath was a member of Magnum Photos – one of its first female image-makers.
Her work in this last category resulted in some of Morath’s most recognised photographs. In 1960 Morath worked on the set of John Huston’s, written by Arthur Miller and starring Clark Gable and Miller’s then-wife Marilyn Monroe. It was Monroe’s last film , and the Miller-Monroe marriage was near its end .
