An English missionary and activist who used photography and photojournalism to help end Leopold's Free Congo State by photographing and publishing the atrocities carried out by the Belgian rubber industry against Congolese natives (particularly children) in newspapers around the world which attracted much of the global support that began the effort to end Leopold's rule.

  • Kitty Jung - American Adult Actress (Born October 24, 1984 in US). She is known for a huge number of adult films, as well as her small size.This has been contrasted against male adult star John Holmes who was known for his largess.

See Wikipedia entry for John Holmes.There are very few details about the actress online despite her huge amount of starring roles in films so will include a few links, although any online search that allows adult results will explode with her films.
