That's a pretty tough judgement, Jayanand, on a photographer working in war 
zones and ultimately killed. We only have a tiny
selection too, shown as web pics, from the article. I'd certainly be viewing 
an exhibition, if I had the opportunity. It would also
be very interesting to know which of her photographs were published under 
Capa's by-line.

Cheers
Hoppy

Personally, I think it is very average, and certainly not iconic, being
hailed because of an early death and association with Capa...
