The Photography of Charles Shaw – Bloomington through His Lens

Charles Gilbert Shaw (1881-1939) was a prominent photographer in Bloomington from his arrival in 1912 until his sudden death in 1939. If you have seen a portrait photograph from this period, then you are likely already familiar with Shaw’s work. He served as the resident photographer for both the Arbutus and The Gothic and ran a thriving private portrait studio. Shaw also took many photos of the houses and public buildings of Bloomington, leaving behind an extensive record of early 20th-century Bloomington. Learn about his life and work in The Photography of Charles Gilbert Shaw: Bloomington through His Lens on view in the Deckard Education Room.
