Our Photographic Collections Catalogers Ellis Martin and Natalie Weiner cataloged 8,000 objects, updated the records for another 12,000 objects, and generated 20,000 images for Lange’s archive, allowing OMCA greater ability to share this coveted collection more broadly online with our upcoming Dorothea Lange Digital Archive. We sat down with Martin to talk about the digitization process, as well as the importance of making these photographs accessible online.

The Dorothea Lange Collection Project is supported by a generous grant from the Henry Luce Foundation.
