I have been asked to give a presentation on Jewish photographers in October. So far I've got

KNOWN POSSIBLE Richard Avedon Ezra Stoller Weegee Alfred Eisenstadt Cornell Capa Yousuf Karsh Robert Capa Peter Aaron Alfred Steiglitz Paul Strand Diane Arbus Margaret Bourke-White (o.k., not Halachichly speaking, but...)

Anyone got any to add or corrections (with sources) to make? I'm sure I've missed a buhzillion and forgotten a few more.

There's a book (out of print) entitled, "international Worlwide Who's Who of Jews in Photography" which I have not been able to locate. If anyone could contribute an ISBN or LC# I'd be appreciative.
