Pennsylvania, History, Photography (1959-2005): A Portfolio
Main Article Content
Abstract
I had not thought of myself as a Pennsylvania photographer.
William Pencak, editor of Pennsylvania History, my colleague for nineteen years and friend for thirty, invited me to contribute a portfolio of my Pennsylvania work to the special issue on photography that Linda A. Ries was planning. A genial and gifted polymath, Pencak had worked together with me on many projects in semiotics, law, literature, and American history. I reviewed my collection of 10,000 slides to see if I might offer a selection.
I discovered that I was a Pennsylvania photographer. Bill did not get to see the results. He died December 9, 2013.
