Legacy

The legacy section has become an indigestible list of assorted books and other media. Most of these should probably be moved into a Further reading section, or at least changed into a bulleted list. What is the point of listing Jane Livingstone, Richard Calvocoressi, and Mark Haworth-Booth without saying why they are significant? Publication details such as publishers and ISBN numbers should not be in the main article text. Verbcatcher (talk) 23:08, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Miller's Work with Vogue

I want to add a section to this page about Miller's work with Vogue, specifically pieces towards the end of the war, rather than general events she witnessed. I feel that this article could benefit from citing specific work from Miller's catalogue and how, like other writers, her works has become important.

I have found two articles from Vogue, one from September 1944 and another from June 1945, which give an account of what she saw and show her style of work.

A key piece I want to put on this page are Miller's actions, along with other broadcasters and war correspondents, after Victory in Europe, during the liberation of camps in Germany. During this time there was large public disbelief that this was still happening. The photographs taken by photojournalists at this time were used as evidence to support the claims of journalists and officials.

This looks like a worthwhile addition. Unfortunately the links you give are not accessible without an account, but that does not prevent you citing these publications as sources.
