Jane Bown

The death of Jane Bown, who was a top portrait photographer for many decades, was announced yesterday.

The Online Photographer has a tribute, including a link to a short news item from Channel 4 earlier this year. It's worth a look as it shows some of her better known images.

More from TOP, which includes links to other articles about Jane Bown. One of these is her obituary at the Guardian which was co-authored by Eamon McCabe, a former Wratten lecturer.
