Description
Above the Fold: The Photographers of the “Gloucester Daily Times,”?1973-2005, features a selection?of works by photographers shooting for the Times?over three decades. The photographs draw on an important archive?of an estimated one million photographs recently donated to the Cape Ann Museum by the North of Boston Media Group. ?
Building on the success of the Museum’s exhibition featuring the work of long-time staff photographer Charlie Lowe in 2009, this new exhibition, Above the Fold,?will focus on the next generation of staff photographers at the paper while highlighting Lowe’s legacy and influence. The exhibition shares?the important role?local?journalism, and specifically photojournalism,?plays in documenting?community.
In this panel discussion, hear from the photographers themselves about their time at the Times and the stories, opportunities, and challenges they encountered.
