Description

From its beginnings in York, Pennsylvania, in 1847, until the death of Wallace L. Goodridge in Saginaw, Michigan, in 1922, the Goodridge Brothers Studio was once essentially the most significant and enduring African American photographic establishment in North The us. In Enterprising Images, John Vincent Jezierski tells the tale of one among The us’s first families of photography, documenting the history of the Goodridge studio for three-quarters of a century. The existence of a couple of thousand Goodridge photographs in all formats and the circle of relatives’s professional and personal activism enrich the portrait that emerges of this atypical circle of relatives. Weaving photographic and regional history with the narrative of a circle of relatives whose lives paralleled the social and political happenings of the country, Jezierski provides the reader with a complex circle of relatives biography for those concerned about regional and African American, in addition to photographic, history.
