Judy,

did you know that George Dunham wrote all of the Morensen books? First
in private, then with all public knowledge. Mortensen said he was
incapable of writing. Dunham got 1/3 of the royalties. Ansel Adams
said in his biography that in California in the 1930s there were two
opposite approches to photography, Edward Weston and William Mortensen.
You seem to know a lot about all three people! Will you tell more?
