A muse and patron to the Surrealists - she encountered them as a group in the 1920s - her first published work was 'Images dans le Dos de Cocher' of 1922 although her collaboration with Miró 'Il était une petite pie' of 1928 is cited more usually as her first publication both were issued under her maiden name Ilse Hirtz. Deharme was immortalised by Breton in Nadja as 'la dame au gant' and she can be regarded in many ways as being 'Le Phare de Neuilly' herself.'Page de couverture identique pour les trois fascicules : photographie de Man Ray contient de nombreuses reproductions photographiques de Man Ray Lee Miller Nadar Brassaï Pierre Keffer Dora Maar'.
