FWIW:
as for Jill Greenberg's light setup, I'm guessing she uses 3 umbrellas, one overhead and the 2 others on either side, slightly behind the subject, pointing towards the subject, 30 degrees forward. A smallish (2 feet diameter?), but bright, probably silver or gold, reflector in front and below the subject's face. A 2 stops stronger light with snoot illuminating the background, and another 2 stops stronger light behind the subject pointing towards the camera to create the halo.
And a loooot of PS indeed.
