Women Photographers Are Dangerous

by Laure Adler & Clara Bouveresse

Women Photographers are Dangerous celebrates more than 60 women photographers, from the 19th century to the present day, who deserve the spotlight for their extraordinary work.

Women Photographers are Dangerous celebrates more than 60 women photographers who have long deserved greater recognition for their extraordinary work.

Many of these pioneers, innovators and artists have ventured into war zones, politics, feminist activism and more. All have taken risks and freed themselves from established frameworks, simply by being who they are and doing what they do.

Ever since Louis Daguerre introduced the first camera to the world in 1838, women photographers have been present and excelled in every field, from art and the sciences to journalism and advertising. Yet all too often, they are denied the spotlight they deserve. Written and compiled by renowned historians Laure Adler and Clara Bouveresse, these pages set the record straight.

Featuring over 100 outstanding photographic works by women photographers including Eve Arnold with her famous Marilyn Monroe portraits; Vivian Maier, whose photos were discovered only after death; and Anne Atkins, who is believed by some to have created the first ever photographic image.
