October 2, 2004 - April 3, 2005 (new closing date)

Museum: Natural History Museum

Location: 2nd Floor, Southwest Wing, off Rotunda Balcony (Hall 30)

On view are some 50 to 60 photographic portraits from National Geographic magazine that record a century's worth of advancements in photography and reflect changes in attitudes toward cultural and social issues. The images were taken to advance the National Geographic Society's original mission - to discover and present the world's unknown places and populations.
