EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1910s, Dr. John Oliver La Gorce, the Associate Editor Director of the National Geographic Society, is seen standing with F.E. Johnson, likely an employee or collaborator, during a rainy day in Washington D.C. The image, taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases Dr. La Gorce wearing a stylish bowler hat and a long raincoat, keeping him dry in the inclement weather. The crisp lines of his formal attire contrast sharply with the soft, blurred raindrops in the background, creating a sense of depth and dimension. Dr. John Oliver La Gorce (1878-1955) was a prominent figure in the National Geographic Society during its early years. He joined the organization in 1905 as an assistant editor and rose through the ranks to become the Associate Editor Director in 1913. Under his leadership, the National Geographic Society continued to grow and expand its reach, publishing groundbreaking stories and captivating images that captured the world's imagination. This photograph, taken during the 1910s, is a testament to the era's fashion trends and the enduring allure of the National Geographic Society.
