Canoe on Dock by Laura Seldman

About the artist

Laura Seldman

As a photo historian, Seldman records timeless and familiar scenes of collective memory. These photographs explore history with evocative imagery. This approach allows the viewer to feel present in the remembered past.

Seldman documents American visual classics found in home towns and along country roads and waterways. Weighted with focus and respect, they fill the landscape with the content and context of living history; illuminating the stories that connect the past and the present.

Appointed photo historian of the Historical Society of the Town of Chester, Seldman coauthored The Underground Railroad in the Adirondack Town of Chester in late 2016.
