==Biography==
Born in Brooklyn, Brooks took an early interest in photography, working in her own darkroom when she was just 12. She studied psychology at Brooklyn College and at the University of Minnesota. From 1941, she shared a New York apartment with the dramatist Julie Arden. After a short period in Bernice Abbott's photography class at the New School for Social Research, she moved to study dance at the school with Barbara Mettler. In 1942, Brooks began to assist Barbara Morgan (photographer) in her studio in Scarsdale, New York, quickly adopting photography as her vocation.〔(Beverly W.

Inspired by Dorothea Lange, she began to produce informative social reform photographs. In 1943, she worked as an assistant to Gjon Mili, doing advertising photography for ''Life'' and ''Vogue''. In 1945, she worked freelance with Standard Oil of New Jersey illustrating the story of oil in home life and in fighting the war. In 1951, she began her career at ''Look'', first working on advertising assignments. She gradually took on news stories, beginning with the candidacy of Dwight D. Eisenhower and Richard Nixon. Other assignments included medical stories, education, and the coverage of various American cities. She also photographed many celebrities including Marilyn Monroe and Lucille Ball. Ed Sullivan introduced her from his audience as "the best girl photographer." Brooks continued to work at ''Look'' until it folded in 1971.〔
