Cameras at Work: African American Studio Photographers and the Business of Everyday Life, 1900-1970
No full textThis dissertation examines the professional lives of African American studio photographers, recovering the history of an important industry in African American community life during segregation and the long Civil Rights Movement. It builds on previous scholarship of black photography by analyzing photographers’ business and personal records in concert with their images in order to more critically consider the circumstances under which African Americans produced and consumed photographs every day. During the first half of the twentieth century, urban photography studios constituted essential spaces where African Americans considered ideas of commerce, art, labor, leisure, class, gender, and group identity; “Cameras at Work” situates studio photographers in the history of photography, twentieth-century black cultural politics, and the trajectory of African American business history. The rich records of the Scurlock Studio in Washington, DC center and focus my analysis, which I develop via close comparison of the Scurlocks with a number of other professionals including Morgan and Marvin Smith, Austin Hansen, Louise Martin, and Ernest Withers. These men and women acted locally while empowering African Americans to share their own images nationally, thus contributing to the creation of a wholly American visual culture. Throughout, I treat photographs as objects through which camera operators, consumers, and viewers articulated an understanding of themselves as well as the historical moment in which they negotiated the making of the photograph.American StudiesDoctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.

Oral memoirs of Milton Moody: an interview conducted on Oct 25, 2023
No full textIncludes interview transcript.contained in: William and Don Griffis Vietnam War Oral History ArchiveOriginally recorded in WAV format at 1411 kbps.Milton Moody was born in Dickens, Texas, on August 28, 1942, and grew up in Midland, Texas. He joined the armed forces on his 23rd birthday in 1965 and served until 1968. In this interview, he recounts his intense training at Fort Polk, Louisiana, the hardships he and his peers faced in Vietnam—some as young as 17 years old—his creative methods for battling the monsoon season, and the dedication and appreciation he held as a proud American. Moody was deployed to Cu Chi Village, north of Saigon, at the age of 25 after attending engineering school. There, he designed the structure for their military station and the roads for the bridge over the Saigon River. As a lieutenant, Moody commanded an engineering workforce whose heroic actions earned him a Heroic Award from the U.S. Army after facing an enemy ambush in May 1968. His resourcefulness, genuine care, and vigorous and unrelenting courage were recognized as he assisted his personnel through the open field and administered first aid to the injured, feeling a deep sense of responsibility to protect his brothers and community.San Angelo Area Foundatio
