From www.rubylane.com/shops/nursingpins This is one of the most beautiful nurse portraits . It is hard to identify which school a nurse attended in early photographs but this one is easy to identify by her pin, Good Samaritan Hospital Training School for Nurses in Portland. The portrait was taken by one of the most noted photographers of the first half of the 20th. century, Ben Markham. Benjamin Clayton Markham was born September 11, 1881. In 1900, at the age of 19, he headed west from Illinois to New Whatcom, Washington, near Bellingham where he was an engineer in a logging camp. His younger brother Ora, who was 18, convinced Ben to quit the logging business and buy two cameras so they could become partners. Ora moved from Peoria, Illinois out to New Whatcom and they started taking picture post cards of the lumberjacks in the logging camps. In 1925, Ben moved to The Dalles where he set up a new studio at age 45, in a town dominated by the Gifford Studio. He specialized in photographing Central Oregon farmers, their families and their hired hands. His legendary views of Native Americans in authentic dress are highly sought after today.
