Eve Arnold is probably best known for her portraits of Marilyn Monroe on the set of "Misfits", but her talent for capturing individuals in a variety of poses, environments and with the ability to always capture the essence of their emotions is what drew me to her. The subject doesn't even have to be looking at the camera for the viewer to feel an emotive response. Below are a couple of portraits I really like of hers. Light is never used the same but is employed to light the subject in the emotive light Arnold desires to display. Here is a link to a website of some of her best shots: http://www.magnumphotos.com/C.aspx?VP3=ViewBox&ALID=2K7O3R14AYQ2&IT=ThumbImage01_VForm&CT=Album
