SUMMARY:The Lost Photographs of Osbert Sumner
DESCRIPTION:In 1898\, Osbert Sumner (1873–1932) was given a camera by his coworkers after leaving his position at a downtown wholesale grocery. With it\, he captured a unique perspective of Indianapolis at the turn of the twentieth century. His glass negatives were left under the basement stairs of his home in Irvington\, where they remained hidden for decades\, only to be discovered by future owners who donated them to the Irvington Historical Society. There were no names\, no dates\, just a cache of incredible images waiting to be identified\, more than 300 of them. For more than seven years\, researchers at the Irvington Historical Society have worked to identify the people\, places\, and stories depicted in the images. \nDeedee Davis\, Irvington Historical Society board member and reference archivist for the Indianapolis City-County Archives\, will discuss the collaborative research process and the discoveries that offer a largely unseen perspective of early Indianapolis. Davis’s talk is presented as part the Indianapolis Public Library’s Culture\, History\, and Society series. \nNote that the program takes place in the Indianapolis Special Collections Room (ISCR) on the 6th floor within Central Library. \nFor more information\, contact Montoya Barker at mbarker@indypl.org or call the library at 317.275.4100. \nThis program received support from an Indiana Humanities Mini-Grant.

SUMMARY:The Healer on Middle Drive: Dr. Rachel Swain and the Swain Sanitorium
DESCRIPTION:Lois DeHoff\, former Indiana public school educator and current instructional librarian at Ivy Tech Community College\, will present an online lecture on Dr. Rachel Swain (1835–1919) and her contributions to alternative and preventive medicine in late 19th- and early 20th-century Indianapolis. By exploring her background and the sanitoriums she operated\, we’ll see how her emphasis on nutrition\, environment\, and gentle therapies reflected both the spirit of her time and ideas that feel remarkably modern today. Her work offers an early example of efforts to treat the whole person rather than just the disease. \nRegistration is required; to register\, click on the RSVP button above. \nNote that the program takes place online.. \nFor more information\, contact Montoya Barker at mbarker@indypl.org or call the library at 317.275.4100. \nThis program is presented as part of the Indianapolis Public Library’s Culture\, History\, and Society series\, which received support from an Indiana Humanities Mini-Grant.
