Victor Jorgensen is a former Navy photo journalist who probably is most notable for taking a photograph of an impromptu scene in Manhattan on August 14 1945 but from a different angle and in a less dramatic exposure than that of a photograph taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt. Both photographs were of the same V-J Day embrace of a woman in a white dress by a sailor. Eisenstaedt’s better known photograph V–J day in Times Square was published in Life.
