Hi, I am the author of the Ohio book on Photographers. I have read the recent postings and feel the need to remind everyone that although it is fine to do look ups from books you may have, it is not ok to post anything on the net from a copyrighted source. FYI, there is a book on Pennsylvania photographers now as well. In my second book, Windows on the Past, I have a chapter on sources for photographer directories, published and unpublished for each state and Canada as well as guidelines on researching photographers. Good luck in your research. Diane Gagel

Diane has a key point here that we need to remember. My thought was a website that would list your book but not its contents, list other websites but not their contents. In other words an index of indexes. If someone had original data and wanted a web home for it, I'd be willing to put it up, but that wouldn't be the main emphasis of the site. Diane, could you e-mail me the complete name of your book including ISBN and how it can be purchased? I don't know of it (I've never had anything to do with US photos, just Canadian and British).
