Did you know that her husband was the guy who played Sidney the Shrink on M*A*S*H? Alan Arbus, also a photographer. Ere
Just checked around and I was mistaken. She did commit suicide but according to this page, she used pills and slit her wrists. A sad ending for a brilliant artist. http://www.temple.edu/photo/photographers/arbus/arbusbio.html Dan C
I have a book of her photos, she's in a category by herself. At Yale art gallery, they have a large photo (silver negative?) of the sword swallower lady, it's awesome.
