About Ava Gardner
Ava Gardner (1922–1990) was a Hollywood star of the 1940s and 1950s, known for The Killers and Mogambo. Mid-century glamour photography captures the style of the film stars of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. Studio photographers used dramatic key lights and soft focus to create Hollywood’s glamorous look.
