Jeremiah Gurney (1812–1895) was an American daguerreotype photographer. Initially working in the jewelry trade in Saratoga, New York, he took up photography after learning of daguerreotype from Samuel Morse, moving to New York City where he began selling photographs alongside jewelry. He was one of the earliest photographers in the city, and may have been the owner of the first photographic gallery in the United States. Gurney took this self-portrait photograph around 1869, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.Photograph credit: Jeremiah Gurney; restored by Adam Cuerden

I am a postdoc in materials science at Humboldt University of Berlin, with a focus on electron microscopy. Rarely active. Started San Diego Yacht Club and artificial wave (which should maybe be combined with artificial wave pool). Feel free to add a comment or sign. |
