Marion Post, as she was known at the time (her later husband Lee Wolcott made the FSA append his name to all her work; plus he also made her give up photography, so he doesn't really deserve to get any credit), didn't only crawl underneath barbed-wire fences in the snow, she also took great pictures of the Old South. She was also considered the beauty among the FSA photographers...
