As well as Ilse Bing, Lotte Jacobi, Marianne Breslauer, Germaine Krull, and Lucia Moholy she produced modernist images and portraits across the fields of avant-garde and commercial production, photojournalism, and fashion.
Marta Vietz was born in Neudamm (Neumark), Germany (now: Dębno, Poland), the daughter of a printer and head of the publishing house Klassische Kunst.
The family moved frequently during her schooling before settling in Berlin in 1912, where her father established a studio for fine art reproductions.
