Join us as we talk with Daniel Willis, audiovisual archivist at the Ohio History Connection, as he talks with us about photography in the early 1900s. He will focus on two photograph collections, the Albert Ewing collection and the Albert Belmont Graham collection.

Traveling photographer Albert J. Ewing was born in 1870 in Washington County, Ohio, near Marietta. During the period of 1896 to 1912, Ewing traveled extensively as an itinerant photographer in southeastern Ohio and central West Virginia. Educator and agriculture pioneer Albert Graham founded the national 4-H movement. His photographs feature scenes from rural environments and schools around Ohio between 1900 and 1920.
