Washington, DC | Curator-Led Tour of “Esther Bubley: Photographing the Homefront” with Sarah Leavitt
November 4 | 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Join ArtTable for a Curator-Led Tour of Esther Bubley: Photographing the Homefront with Sarah Leavitt at the Lillian and Albert Small Capital Jewish Museum.
Esther Bubley (1921-1998), the daughter of Jewish immigrants, was a documentary photographer who worked for the Office of War Information during WWII. While in the capital, she photographed Wilson (now Jackson-Reed) High School students and followed uniformed soldiers throughout the city—to the Loew’s Theater, Glen Echo amusement park, and Dissin’s Jewish boarding house, where her sister lived. Bubley’s evocative black-and-white photographs show us a bustling city welcoming thousands of new residents experiencing urban life. This exhibition pairs dramatic photography with artifacts from the Museum collection that help illustrate this glimpse into the capital city at a critical time in our nation’s history.
