Also, she became publicly related to the circle of anti-fascist European and intellectuals (such as Ernest Hemingway and George Orwell) who crusaded particularly for the Spanish Republic.

"Regards", "Life", "Illustrated London News" and "Volks-Illustrierte" (the exile edition of Arbeiter-Illustrierte-Zeitung) were amongst the publications that used her work.
