Stephen Glass was the lesser known brother of the photographer Zoltán Glass. He was born in Hungary to Jewish parents, and like his brother, with whom he shared a studio in London, he made a career as a photographer. In the 1940s and 50s, he specialised in photographing nudes for such magazines as Health and Efficiency and The Naturist. The models, June Palmer and Pamela Green posed for him, and he frequently used Spielplatz nudist camp in Bricket Wood as a location.
