On this day, 19 December 1908, photographer, socialist and anti-fascist Gisele Freund was born to a Jewish family in Germany. She photographed the German anti-fascist movement until one of her friends was jailed and murdered, upon which she went to France where she began a relationship with avant-garde poet Adrienne Monnier, who arranged for her to marry a male friend to remain in the country. Following the Nazi invasion of France she fled to Argentina, where she worked for Magnum Photos until forced to break ties following the American Red Scare. After publication of photographs she took of Eva Peron wearing lavish jewellery, she was forced to leave the country as it contradicted the Peronist propaganda about austerity. She eventually returned to France where she lived until her death in 2000. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/2165700273615111/?type=3
