Margaret Bourke-White
I'm reading a biography of Margaret Bourke-White, the famous photographer of the 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's (?). She was an interesting character and a ground-breaker as the first female photo journalist, etc. As far as her personal life, she didn't have a clue and she's just another example of a famous, respected person who accomplished big things but did not have her act together. She exalted her career above everything else in her life and, in my opinion, paid heavily for it. It's ironic that so many people I know are making the same mistake.
