CREATORS

* Dorothy Norman (American, 1905–1997)  - artist
In 1968 Dorothy Norman supported the establishment of the Alfred Stieglitz Center at the Philadelphia Museum of Art with an initial gift from her splendid collection of over 500 photographs by Alfred Stieglitz, Ansel Adams, Paul Strand, Minor White, and other important twentieth-century photographers, many of whom she knew well. She continued to give generously until her death in 1997, when most of her collection came to the PMA. Poplars, Lake George was on loan to the CMA from 1984 until her death when the photograph entered the CMA's collection as a bequest.
