George Bernard Shaw.

An interesting online
exhibition by the London School of Economics archives looks at playwright George Bernard Shaw as a skilled photographer. Photo subjects include sci-fi and mystery author
Grant Allen (I introduced the Valancourt Books edition of Allen's
Miss Cayley's Adventures), writer
Rebecca West, and artists
Augustus John (father of Ian Fleming's half-sister
Amaryllis) and
Neville Stephen Bulwer Lytton (grandson of novelist Edward). Also featured are some photos by
Shaw's friends such as T. E. Lawrence (aka Lawrence of Arabia) and
Shaw productions such as
Major Barbara with Wendy Hiller.
