|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Mary Morris Lawrence Melissa Wade, Photographer Boston | MA | USA | Posted: 8:02 PM on 08.29.09 ->> PDN Pulse - http://www.pdnpulse.com/2009/08/mary-morris-lawrence-first-female-ap-photog... - highlighted the end of Mary Morris Lawrence’s obituary which made me want to find out more about her “…In lieu of flowers, Mary would ask you to join the League of Women Voters, shop at Farmer Joes, write a letter to the editor, or break a glass ceiling!” I put together several links to obituaries & a 2007 interview here - http://hockeyphotography.com/blog/?p=126 - but have only been able to find one group of photos online (Hollywood & music). Does anyone know of a way to view images she took during her AP period in the late 30s?  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Break the glass ceiling is right! And look at how many threads this woman pioneer photographer generated here off your post. :-) What's up with that? Researching away right now to find out more about her life and work. I'm sorry I never got to meet her when she was right here in my backyard.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
