Conde Nast sought her out as a model, Picasso painted her portrait, Jean Cocteau filmed her, Man Ray was enticed into teaching her photography, Max Ernst and Leonora Carrington befriended her, Life magazine hired her as a photojournalist, the U.S. military hired her as a combat photographer, she married artist and writer Roland Penrose and threw elaborate parties.
