Savannah Cunningham, In Center Of Marine Online Misogyny Scandal, Starts Basic Training In April
Savannah Cunningham says that while she's been torn over how to respond to the online harassment, she decided to join the Marines because it was the most selective and demanding. She will work on a crew loading missiles on Cobra helicopters.
As her Twitter pics reveal, Cunningham has been working out intensely in preparation for Marine duty. "I wanted to make sure I could do anything male Marines could," she told the Times. "I didn't want anyone to hold me to a lower standard. "
While horrified by what happened to her and how a former close boyfriend shared a private strip tease video, Sav now dates a Marine sergeant and says the majority of male Marines she knows were totally disgusted by the photo sharing.
"We have to be positive examples of the change we want to see," she said. "Courage, integrity, honor: I want to live those values."

Iconic photographer Annie Leibovitz has arranged for her archives to be part of the LUMA Foundation, the Swiss nonprofit founded by Maja Hoffmann. The collaboration is part of LUMA's Living Archives Program, dedicated to working with living artists across disciplines including photography, design, literature, film, and dance.
Over 8,000 photographs will open on May 26 in an exhibition coinciding with the opening of LUMA's Frank-Gehry designed Parc des Ateliers location in Arles, France.
“Annie Leibovitz Archive Project #1: The Early Years”—which opens on May 27—will focus on the photographer’s work between 1968 and 1983 and is intended as the first of several projects dedicated to Leibovitz’s career-beginnings. The show will also mark the first time that the archives become available to the public. ArtNet writes:
Opening with photographs taken when she was enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute as a painting major, the exhibition will go on to examine the artist’s work through 1983. During that time, Leibovitz began working for Rolling Stone, eventually becoming the magazine’s chief photographer in 1973 before resigning ten years later to photograph for Vanity Fair.
Gowanus Brooklyn Batcave Set For Herzog & de Meuron Transformation To Support Creative Economy
The Pritzker Prize-winning Herzog & de Meuron will transform the Gowanus Batcave into a manufacturing center for the arts. Commissioned by the non-profit Powerhouse Environmental Arts Foundation, which acquired the building in 2012 for $7 million, the property will support Brooklyn's expanding creative economy, with facilities for metal and woodwork, ceramics, textiles and printing. Other spaces will support exhibitions and events at the Powerhouse Workshop.
That need has been growing more acute, as gentrification pushes out artists, artisans and the small manufacturers who work with them in this highly-specialized boutique sector. The foundation anticipates that the project will create more than 100 jobs and open in 2020.
