Date of Birth: 1868

Date of Death: 1952

Edward Sheriff Curtis was a photographer that focused solely on the West and Native Americans. Curiously, he lived in Minnesota, and built his very first camera. Most famous for his filming of The North American Indian. Essentially a documentary. Also famous for photographing Princess Angeline (a Native American.)

I rate this photograph a 7 out of 10, because I just don’t feel like it captures her best side, but it does make you think and feel for her, which again is important.
