Career
Meitner-Graf was a freelance photographer in Vienna, Austria until 1938, when Hitler's occupation forced her to seek asylum in London, United Kingdom. There she remained the rest of her life. During the war she managed the Fayer Studio, signing all her photographs with Fayer's name. In the early 1950s she opened her own studio.
Lotte Meitner-Graf earned her living taking photographs of famous personalities, and many such portraits were used on book and album jackets. But she did not limit her interest to people of fame or wealth. In addition to her portraits, her work also showed her fascination with the human hand and with details of everyday nature, such as dewdrops and dandelions.
