Description
Graduation portrait of Frank Golden taken at the Avery Studio in the 1940s. Operated by Joseph H. Avery Jr. in Frenchtown, Tallahassee, the studio captured the African-American community during the Jim Crow era when rarely other studios provided this service. Avery moved to Jacksonville in 1950, and later on to Washington, D.C. in the early 1960s, where he became the first Black photographer for the U.S. House of Representatives.
