Curator Susan Chevlowe will discuss “Taking a Broad View: Portrait Photography from the Collection,” featuring more than two dozen images in a variety of portrait genres, including traditional headshots, candid portraits, environmental portraits, group and family portraits. Marking the 250th anniversary of the United States, the program will consider the role that photography has played in constructing American social identities, as well as opportunities for self-reflection and empathy. Subjects range from Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Brenner\u2019s women rabbis, cantors, faculty, and students in Manhattan to Larry Fink\u2019s young girl and her mother preparing for her first communion in the Bronx, from GisMo\u2019s Cuban American princesses in Miami to Toba Tucker\u2019s Pueblo community members in the Southwest, and such entertainment and celebrity icons as Ray Charles, James Dean, Betty Friedan, Pete Seeger, and many others.<\/p>\n
