Hollywood glamour photographer George Hurrell was a master of his tradecraft, taking flattering star portraits and making the already gorgeous seem a bit more so, through his expertise with light, exposure, and pose. Film star Veronica Lake is memorialized here in her first major film role "I Wanted Wings" in which the blonde bombshell and co-stars Ray Milland and William Holden electrify the silver screen.
