Peter E. Palmquist award recipients

[Michael Pritchard]

The Peter E. Palmquist Memorial Fund for Historical Photographic Research provides financial support to independent researchers who are studying either Western American photographers before 1900 or women photographers past and present. The Humboldt Area Foundation in Bayside, California, administers this fund, which solicits applications for grants once a year in the fall and awards the grants the following January. A small panel of outside consultants with professional expertise in the field of photohistory and/or grant reviewing determines each year’s awards.

The list of past recipients with their projects has been updated with details from: Stella Jungmann, Josephine Givodan, and a second project by Pippa Oldfield (No Man’s Land: Women’s Photography and the First World War.)  In addition, other recipients have contributed updates to their projects.
