Episode #113: Modern Love--Lee Miller and Man Ray (Season 13, Episode 6)
This season, I’m rounding up stories about modern artists in love, in lust, in relationships— digging into these individuals, see how their liaisons, marriages, affairs, and connections played in or on their respective works of art, and how, if anything, they affected art history as we know it. I, for one, believe that it’s time for Modern Love. Today: we’re homing in on the early years of Lee Miller, model and photographer, and her years spent with surrealist Man Ray.

A beautiful young woman, still in her late teens, stands on a street corner in New York City. Something catches her eye as she waits to cross the busy intersection. And it could be anything. A passing bird, a glare off a car's windshield, the bright coat of a commuter passing nearby.
