EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Rear Admiral William Shepherd Benson, the Chief of Naval Operations for the United States Navy in 1914. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases Benson in full uniform, standing tall and confident against a plain background. His naval cap sits atop his head, adorned with the insignia of his rank, and his chest is bedecked with medals and ribbons. The admiral's formal attire, complete with a crisp white shirt, dark jacket, and trousers, exudes an air of authority and tradition. Benson served a distinguished career in the US Navy, which spanned over three decades. He began his naval service as a midshipman in 1880 and rose through the ranks to become the Chief of Naval Operations in 1914. During his tenure, he oversaw significant advancements in naval warfare, including the development of new technologies and strategies. The photograph was taken during a time when the US Navy was undergoing significant expansion and modernization in response to the growing international tensions leading up to World War I. Benson's leadership and vision were instrumental in preparing the US Navy for the challenges of the 20th century. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 100,000 glass negatives and 26,000 prints documenting life in the United States during the early 20th century. This image, in particular, provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of naval leadership during a pivotal moment in American history.
