Photography Encyclopedia: Minya Dièz-Dührkoop

Dièz-Dührkoop, Minya (1873-1929), German portrait photographer, daughter of Rudolph Dührkoop. In 1894 she married the Spanish photographer Luis Dièz, but was divorced in 1901. She was influenced by pictorialism and had a decisive impact on the work of the Dührkoop studio. With her father she visited Paris and London in 1900-1 and the USA in 1904. In 1908 she joined the Linked Ring. After setting up independently in Bremen, she took over her father's studio in 1918, and in 1919 joined the Society of German Photographers (Gesellschaft Deutscher Lichtbildner; GDL).
