Iconic photograph of Margaret Bourke-White At the start of her career, Margaret Bourke-White moved to New York to become a commercial photographer and staff photographer for Fortune magazine in 1929. One of her first jobs was photographing the Chrysler Building as it rose, briefly becoming the tallest structure in New York. When workers began constructing the building's modern gargoyles on the sixty-first floor, Bourke-White decided: "Here would be my new studio... I loved the view so much that I often climbed onto the gargoyles, which projected over the street 240 meters below, to photograph the changing moods of the city." Margaret Bourke-White (1904-1971) One of the great photojournalists of the 20th century and one of the mothers of photojournalism, Margaret Bourke-White was the first American female war correspondent (and the first woman allowed to work in combat zones in World War II) and the first female photographer to work for Life magazine, edited by Henry Luce. One of her photographs graced the cover of the first issue, on November 23, 1936.
