    In conjunction with the exhibition Fritz Henle: In Search of Beauty, photographer Fritz Henle’s widow Marguerite and daughter Tina Henle discuss his life and legacy. The discussion is moderated by Roy Flukinger, the Ransom Center’s Senior Research Curator of Photography and curator of the exhibition. Seating is free, but limited. This event will be WEBCAST. This retrospective exhibition, opening on February 3, celebrates the art of freelance photographer Fritz Henle (1909–1993). A contributor to such magazines as LIFE and Harper’s Bazaar, Henle had a distinctive style that was characterized by a unique combination of the realistic and the romantic. Featuring more than 100 photographs, this exhibition encompasses a broad range of Henle’s work, including images of 1930s New York, Mexico, and Paris; nudes; and portraits of famous personalities.
