Garo's work is nearly impossible to find, as supposedly little of it survived despite his being famous and a central influence on Karsh and others. Irregardless, the style Karsh is the pinnacle of is also the style that was taking place at the same time in Hollywood cinematography (noir-esque), and preempting that the early golden-age glam of the likes of Mortenson, Hurrell, and etc. But, yeah, it all ties together I think.
