An Original Vintage 7" x 9" [18 x 23 cm] News Photo (Learn More) Bunny Yeager was an American photographer and pin-up model from the 1950s to the 2010s. After graduating high school, she enrolled at the Coronet Modeling School and Agency, and soon won numerous local beauty pageants. Her career as a professional photographer began when a picture of Maria Stinger was sold to Eye magazine for the cover of the March 1954 issue. She became a technically skilled photographer noted for, among other things, her early use of the fill flash technique (to lighten dark shadows when shooting in bright sun), and was one of the first photographers to photograph her models outdoors with natural light. She met Bettie Page in 1954, and played a role in helping to make Page famous, particularly with her photos in Playboy magazine. Yeager was a prolific and successful pinup photographer in the 1950s and 1960s, and her work was published in mainstream magazines including Cosmopolitan, Esquire, Pageant, Redbook and Women's Wear Daily. The famous still images she took of Ursula Andress emerging from the water on the beach in Jamaica for the 1962 James Bond film Dr. No are probably her best known bikini photographs. Later, her works were featured in numerous galleries and exhibitions. She passed away in 2014 at the age of 85. Important Added Info: Note that this great news photo, which measures 7" x 9" [18 x 23 cm], shows Bunny Yeager in 1949, before she became a famous photographer, when she worked as a model, and in this case, she was hired to demonstrate a louvered window that prevented leakage!
