For nearly a century, Addison N. Scurlock - and later, his sons Robert
and George - recorded the lives of black Washingtonians. Working out of
a studio on U Street NW, Scurlock enmeshed himself in the city's black
society; a Scurlock portrait was a measure of distinction. His film
captured individuals, families and groups - and lives and customs
otherwise perhaps overlooked.
