Florence (nee Michaelis) Harrison began her work in photography in the 1930s. A long time resident of the South Bay, she helped found the South Bay Camera Club and served as its president for a number of years. She was also a member of Click Chicks Camera Club and Southern California Council of Camera Clubs. Florence's photographs were featured in magazines and newspapers and she exhibited across the country and abroad. She earned an Associateship award from the Royal Photographic Society and was a fellow of the Photographic Society of America. She was particularly known for her work with children and cats.
