Albert Einstein at Princeton Luncheon, 1953
American girl in Italy, 1951
Orkin is perhaps best known for her photograph, American Girl in Italy, taken in 1951. The subject of the now-iconic photograph was the 23-year-old Ninalee Craig (known at that time as Jinx Allen). The photograph was conceived inadvertently when Orkin noticed the men ogling Allen as she walked down the street. Orkin asked Allen to walk down the street again, to be sure she had the shot.

These are photos of Japanese-Americans reintegrating into American society after the wartime internment. In retrospect it's hard not to see these as propaganda.
