Remembering Harper's Bazaar Editor in Chief Carmel Snow
She served at the magazine from 1934 through 1958.
The Women’s Museum of Ireland, a virtual entity, currently has a nice tribute to Carmel Snow posted. That in turn has led Dublin freelancer Paula Burns to retrace for Irish Examiner the Emerald Isle native’s remarkable career.
Burns’ basic take is that Snow deserves to be, among her peers, as much of a household name as Anna Wintour and Diana Vreeland. Her article however indirectly reminds why Snow is not; it happened too long ago. After jumping into an opportunity in the early 1920s to cover Paris couture shows when the assigned journalist fell ill, Snow joined Vogue magazine and rose to the rank of fashion editor.
