Shot by Irwin Bueller

Note: Photos in the second row have also been documented as being shot by Ruth Harriet Louise (see above section).

However, all of the photos below were listed for sale in November 2021 by Heritage Auctions as being shot specifically by Bueller.

Louise was the head of MGM's portrait studio from 1925 to 1930, and Bueller worked there during that time.
It's possible that their sessions overlapped, or that Louise was given official credit for everything shot at MGM during her tenure.

I've left other shots clearly from the same sessions in the Louise section above, but placed those specifically listed by Heritage Auctions as by Bueller here.
