Based on research, it seems that these photographs were taken by at least 12 different Old Dominion University (ODU) photography students as part of a class project around 1994. The professor teaching photography at ODU at the time was David E. Johnson, who likely guided the students throughout the project.
Scope and Contents
This collection is a portfolio of 46 prints mounted on Bristol board like material. The photographs show different parts of Norfolk including: Little Creek Road, Hampton Boulevard, Granby Street, Downtown, and Wards Corner. Notable locations and events include a local gay bar called Nutty Buddy's, Norfolk Naval homecomings, The Hague, Oceanview, and Waterside. The photographs are artistic in nature, particularly in the style of street photography. The photographs have unique compositions and subject matter. The photographs are labeled with the title of the photo and the name of the photographer. Most of the photographs are in black and white, but there are some photographs in color.
