Photographs, 1921-1990
These photographs come from four sources: Walsh's own collection, Mary Louis Doherty's photographs, the George Meany Archives, and the Papers of Katherine Anne Porter. They include black and white photographs of various sizes, negatives, and contact prints. The subjects of the majority of them are Porter manuscripts and photographs taken by Walsh in Porter's College Park apartment in 1977-1978. Other subjects include the third convention of the Pan American Federation of Labor in Mexico City in January 1921, illustrations from Manuel Gamio's La Población de Valle de Teotihuacán and the Mexican Review photographed at the Library of Congress, Mary Louis Doherty, friends of Doherty, the farm of Doherty's friend Cyrus Merriam, John Doherty, Katherine Anne Porter, Samuel Y. Yúdico, Luis N. Morones, Ward Dorrance, and Mexican and American labor leaders. The photographs are arranged in four groupings: print and slides, photographs of Porter manuscripts, contact sheet strips, and negatives.
