Title: Stories a Photo Can Tell

URL: https://www.bklynlibrary.org/blog/2023/01/02/stories-photo-can-tell/

Description: I recently reprocessed the composite collection Early Brooklyn and Long Island photographs (ARC.201). This 1900 class photo from P.S. 15 is included in the collection. Though we have many class photos, it's much more rare for us to actually be able to identify the students in the photos, and even more infrequent to have as many named as this. I decided to use some of our research tools to see if I could flesh out the lives of these promising young graduates.
