Lorant’slegacy continues to influence institutions and individualsalike. As Steven Heller observed, ’There is no telling whatphotojournalism would be like today if it wasn’t for Lorant’s efforts.’ Theinfluence and legacy of Lorant’s picture based journalism and Picture Postin particular have permeated magazines of the time including Lifeand Look magazines, more recently the colour supplements suchas The Sunday Times Magazine as well as Town and Queen.Overall his contribution to ’the creative use of actuality’ haschanged the way we see the social landscape in such celebritymagazines such as OK! and Hello! and the television documentary from theearly BBC Tonight programmes through to Panorama.
