EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Alfred T Palmer in 1942, showcases the talent and dedication of a U. S. Marine Band drummer. The image is believed to have been captured at the Marine Barracks in Washington, D. C. , during World War II. The subject of this portrait is Charles Owen, an esteemed marimba soloist with the United States Marine Band. Additionally, he served as a timpanist with both the U. S. Marine Band and Orchestra from 1934 to 1954. Dressed in his military uniform, Owen exudes pride and professionalism as he holds his drumsticks poised for action. Palmer's expert use of lighting brings out every detail on Owen's face, emphasizing his focused expression and highlighting the intricate features of his drum set. The photographer's choice to capture this moment in black and white adds a timeless quality to the image. This photograph serves as a testament to the important role that music played during times of war - providing solace, inspiration, and unity among soldiers serving their country far from home. It also pays homage to the brave men like Charles Owen who used their musical talents to uplift spirits amidst challenging circumstances. Preserved within the archives of the Library of Congress' Farm Security Administration collection, this remarkable print captures not only an individual musician but also represents a larger narrative about American heritage during one of its most defining eras - World War II.
