    For PJ (sorry about that Nat!)

    Bunny Yeager.
    Here's the diorama in full. There are 4 backgrounds to choose from, and 4 matching scenes to put in the viewfinder of the 4x5 camera. I love it as much for the photo geekness as I do the BP-ness!

    Here's a snap of Bunny I took (I'm guessing about ten years ago) at a Miami Beach book signing. She's on the left. The other woman is the model in the photo.

    One of my prized possessions is my autographed copy of Bunny's Honeys...

    as always...you rock
    "I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer.
    I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time.
    I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important.
    I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live."

    Thanks, guys. What a lot of folks may not know about Yeager (especially if they only learned of her through reading about BP) is that she was an extremely attractive model in her youth and also posed for much of the same kind of cheesecake pinup stuff as BP.

    She gradually made the transition from in front of to behind the camera, and at some point shooting became her passion...
