Margaret Bourke-White worked on her craft up until the weeks leading to her death. Later in life Margaret unfortunately developed a disease call Parkinson’s; this disease threatened and eventually succeeded in taking away her livelihood. Parkinson's attacks a person’s central nervous system and impairs their motor skills. However, Margaret Bourke-White did not go without a fight; she continued to take photos, and even when she could no longer snap the shot herself, she accomplished this via an assistant in order to get those all important images that captured the truth.
"I feel that utter truth is essential, and to get that truth
it may take a lot of searching and long hours."
