Edward Curtis


Many of the Native American photographs we enjoy on this site can be credited to Edward Curtis, pictured above. In the late 1800's and early 1900's, Curtis realized that the traditional Native American lifestyle was coming to an end. He received a grant from J.P. Morgan to travel the country and photograph Native Americans in their traditional lifestyle and culture.
