EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, John B. May Jr. is seen seated at his desk, focused intently on the candlestick telephone before him. The year is 1915, and May holds the esteemed position of Conference Clerk to Secretary Daniels in the United States government. The scene is set in a traditional office, with a wooden desk and a simple office chair. A glass negative captures the image, adding to the vintage feel of the photograph. In the background, a pole telephone can be seen, a common communication tool of the time. May's attire is that of a formal businessman, wearing a suit and tie. He exudes a sense of professionalism and dedication to his job as a civil servant. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a government employee during the early 20th century. The Harris & Ewing photographic studio was a prominent name in American photography during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Founded by George H. Harris, George W. Harris, and Martha Ewing Kuntze, the studio produced thousands of photographs for various clients, including the United States government. This image of John B. May Jr. is a testament to the studio's ability to capture the essence of their subjects and preserve history through their work. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American history, showcasing the evolution of communication technology and the daily life of a government employee during a pivotal time in the country's history.
