Horst - Horst Paul Albert Bohrmann (1906–1999) known as Horst P. Horst was a German-American fashion photographer. In the late 1920s, Horst studied at Hamburg Kunstgewerbeschule, leaving there in 1930 to go to Paris to study under the architect Le Corbusier. While in Paris, he befriended many people in the art community and attended many galleries. In 1931, Horst began his association with Vogue, publishing his first photograph in the French edition of Vogue in December of that year. His first exhibition was hung in La Plume d'Or in Paris in 1932. It was reviewed by Janet Flanner in The New Yorker, and this review, which appeared after his exhibit was over, made Horst instantly famous. Horst made a portrait of Bette Davis the same year, the first in a series of celebrities he would photograph during his life. On October 21 he received his United States citizenship as Horst P. Horst. In 1945 he photographed United States President Harry S. Truman, with whom he became friends, and he photographed every First Lady in the post-war period at the invitation of the White House. In 1947, Horst moved into his house in Oyster Bay, New York. One of his most famous portraits is of Marlene Dietrich, taken in 1942. In the 1960s, encouraged by Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, Horst began a series of photos illustrating the lifestyle of international high society. His last photograph for British Vogue was in 1991 with Princess Michael of Kent. He died at his home in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, at 93 years of age.
