1941 Vintage Negatives  LISBON, PORTUGAL - PHOTOGRAPHER ANNEMARIE CLARAC-SCHWARZENBACH
Annemarie Minna Renée Schwarzenbach (23 May 1908 – 15 November 1942) was a Swiss  writer, journalist and photographer. Her bisexual mother brought her up in a masculine style, and her androgynous image suited the bohemian Berlin society of the time, in which she indulged enthusiastically. Her Anti-Fascist campaigning forced her into exile, where she became close to the family of novelist Thomas Mann. She would live much of her life abroad as a photo-journalist, embarking on many lesbian relationships, and experiencing a growing morphine addiction. In America, the young Carson McCullers was infatuated with Annemarie, to whom she dedicated Reflections in a Golden Eye. Annemarie reported on the early events of World War II, but died of a head injury, following a fall.
