Following World War, I brought rapid changes across the globe, from London, Paris, to New York and Rome. It was the beginning of the Jazz Age which ruled the 1920s and the 1930s. Fashion, music, and dance gained popularity. In the United States, the jazz culture originated in New Orleans and also influenced popular culture for a long time. During this time, the Jazz Age was intertwined with the developing cultures of young people.

Here are some beautiful photographs of some famous Hollywood personalities of the 1920s. James Abbe captured these photographs. He moved to New York City in 1917 and established himself as an internationally renowned photographer. His pictures had been published in Vanity Fair, Vogue, and Ladies Home Journal.

Also, check the 1920s women fashion and the flappers of the 1920s.
