Leni Riefenstahl (please, hold your fire ;-) )

Eve Arnold (Magnum)

Inge Morath (Magnum)

Martine Franck (Magnum)

Lise Sarfati (Magnum)

I think Lee Miller used a LTM, but she mostly was a Rolleiflex gal.

Gerda Taro (Robert Capa's girlfriend, killed during the Spanish Civil 
War)


There are/were of course many other female shooters, but off the top of 
my head there
are the only ones I can come up with who shot Leicas...
