"I had a name which was a little……" — Robert Capa

"I had a name which was a little bit different from Bob Capa. The real name of mine was not too good. I was just as foolish as I am now, but younger. I couldnt get any assignment. I needed a new name badlyAnd then I invented that Bob Capa was a famous American photographer who came over to Europe and did not want to bore French editors because they did not pay enoughSo I just moved in with my little Leica, took some pictures and wrote Bob Capa on it which sold for double prices."
