'Since the response of the model to the photographer is an important determining factor in the quality of the photograph, the question rises: Who takes better pictures of women, men or women' - 'How I Photograph Nudes'. 1963. FIRST EDITION. --HOW I PHOTOGRAPH NUDES-- Inscribed by BUNNY YEAGAR, a pre-eminent 20th c. glamour photographer. In just about very good condition, with rubbing to the edges. Dust-jacket still presentable. Published by A.S. Barnes & Co. Linnea Eleanor 'Bunny' Yeagar (1929-2014) was a professional photographer's model in Miami Beach who would go on to a second career as a photographer herself. Yeager became successful doing glamour photography and author of several books on photography (she was also called 'the world's prettiest photographer'). In 1954, Yaeger met pin-up beauty Bettie Page-- she took most of Pages' photos in that year; along with photographer Irving Klaw, Yeager played a major role in making Bettie Page the notoriously famous glamour pin-up of the 1950s (particularly her Playboy magazine's photos of Page). Yeager was a successful glamour photographer even after Bettie Page retired. In 1962, Bunny took still-photos of actress Ursula Andress on the beach (for the James Bond movie, 'Dr No'). In 2010, The WarhoI Museum held a first museum exhibit of Bunny Yeager's photographs-- most images were from her 1964 book "How I Photograph Myself".
