Hannah Maynard’s studio in Victoria, 1888.<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. Many photographers over the years were female, in spite of the majority being male. Some members have researched the history of women in photography, and occasionally given a presentation on the topic. Any discussion of women in photography brings to mind PHSC member\u00a0Laura Jones<\/a> who established the Baldwin Street gallery many years ago.<\/p>\n

George Dunbar writes, “The latest issue of Canada’s History magazine (Aug\/Sept, 2022) features the works of some of Canada’s earliest women photographers.\u00a0Included are Alvira Lockwood, Mrs. Chauncey Miller, Elise L’Heureux Livernois and Hannah Maynard.\u00a0Some great insights here for PHSC members.”<\/p>\n

I can recall only Hannah Maynard, who was in business in BC with her husband and was the subject of a Photographic Canadiana article, and Elise L’Heureux Livernois of Quebec. I have a Livernois cabinet card and came across Elise while searching out information on the famous Quebec studio.<\/p>\n

Thanks to my good friend for sharing this find with us.<\/p>\n

Note: The title of this post is a riff on a song by Connie Francis called,”Where the Boys Are<\/a>“. The song is from a movie of the same name, based on a book also of the same name<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
