HARRY BISSENGER. Studied with the great anatomist, George Bridgeman. He was chief art retoucher for still pictures at Warner's in the heyday of great movie stars. The lovely Miss Irene Dunne said of him after viewing one of her stills, "The man is a genius. I've never heard of anyone retouching transparancies, they say it's impossible." The artist was also well known for his photography which had appeared on numerous magazine covers but his real passion was painting the female nude in the classical style.
