DAVID HUME KENNERLY
ARCHIVE CREATION PROJECT
50 YEARS BEHIND THE SCENES OF HISTORY
The David Hume Kennerly Archive is an extraordinary collection of images, objects and
recollections created and collected by a great American photographer, journalist, artist and
historian documenting 50 years of United States and world history.
The goal of the DAVID HUME KENNERLY ARCHIVE CREATION PROJECT is to protect,
organize and share its rare and historic objects – and to transform its half-century of images
into a cutting-edge digital educational tool that is fully searchable and available to the public
for research and artistic appreciation.

DAVID HUME KENNERLY
Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist David Hume Kennerly has spent his career documenting the people and events
that have defined the world. The last photographer hired by Life Magazine, he has also worked for Time, People,
Newsweek, Paris Match, Der Spiegel, Politico, ABC, NBC, CNN and served as Chief White House Photographer for
President Gerald R. Ford.
Kennerly’s images convey a deep understanding of the forces shaping history and are a peerless repository of
exclusive primary source records that will help educate future generations. His collection comprises a sweeping record
of a half-century of history and culture – as if Margaret Bourke-White had continued her work through the present day.

HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE
The David Hume Kennerly collection of photography, historic artifacts, letters and objects might be one of the largest
and most historically significant private collections ever produced and collected by a single individual. Its 50-year
span of images and objects tells the complete story of the baby boom generation. Like the Zapruder film of JFK’s
assassination or Woodward and Bernstein’s Watergate papers, many of the objects and images in Kennerly’s collection
constitute the only primary source record in existence of historic events.
4
THE OTHER PERSON IN THE ROOM
Kennerly’s deep understanding of the forces shaping our world drove him to seek out opportunities to document
history that others missed. Often he was the only person in the room other than participants themselves. His lists
of exclusive situations or images include the end of the Vietnam War, Jonestown, Reagan and Gorbachev’s Fireside
Summit, in the Pentagon’s secret video conferencing room with the Secretary of Defense during the Iraq war, with
McCain the night he won the New Hampshire primary, election night 2000 with Bush and Cheney, the aftermath of
9/11 at the Pentagon, Donald Rumsfeld’s visit to Abu Ghraib, the final episode of the television show Seinfeld and
more. Kennerly’s collection includes portraits and behind-the-scenes documentation of hundreds of notable world
figures, including every president since Richard Nixon, dozens of elections, congressional crises, wars, and a host
of major national and international events. It also contains a vast but little-known collection of images chronicling
American life, landscape and nature.

COHORT OF ONE
Kennerly is alone in maintaining his career at the
very highest levels while creating an uninterrupted
visual record of a half-century of history. With his
first photograph published in 1962, Kennerly started
his career in the black & white pre-motordrive era.
He not only survived the war in Vietnam, but also
the independent contractor transition of the 1980s
when he was able to maintain ownership of his
photographs. He continued shooting and was able
to seamlessly make the shift from film to digital in
the early 2000’s at a time when many of his cohorts
were ready to retire or found themselves unemployed
with the decline of print journalism. And Kennerly
continues to add to his archive, currently covering his
12th presidential election, this time for CNN.
6
MORE THAN IMAGES
In addition to the extraordinary images and rare
vintage prints, The David Hume Kennerly collection
also includes an extraordinary number of unique
objects that Kennerly collected throughout his fiftyyear journey such as the cameras with which he
photographed his Pulitzer Prize-winning images
in Vietnam, press passes, passports, flight records,
caption envelopes, art and extraordinary objects and
letters signed by world leaders.

WHY NOW?
Photos are fragile – almost as fragile as memories.
However, familiar dangers such as loss or damage to
the physical negative are, in reality, the least ominous
of the threats to current photo archives.
Too often archivists are handed collections after
the creator has died, and with them much of the
contextual information that adds immeasurable
historic value to understanding the importance of the
material. The foresight in tackling this archival project
while David is still a working journalist means that not
only will his images be preserved, but along with them
the critical contextual information about them, and the
stories behind the lens. In the age of the Internet we
are able to share vast quantities of images in the blink
of an eye, however without metadata, the true import
of those images is often lost to history.
12
ARCHIVE CREATION
Over the last two decades David and his wife, Rebecca, have invested their time and resources into David’s
extraordinary collection with the clear objective of trying to ensure that it realizes its educational potential. Working as
detectives, they tracked down Kennerly’s original photographic material from agencies and publications around the
world. This material now lives with them in their home. They have invested more than $250,000 to research and deploy
best practices to organize the various types of material, invest in software and personnel to protect and upgrade digital
files, keeping early digital files usable and stable, create custom digital databases, edit slides and negatives to identify
key images, create, process and catalogue thousands of digital files from original negatives. They are now embarking
on the next step to help this collection become a living archive available to the public.
13
CREATING A LIVING ARCHIVE
Photo collections are complicated and expensive with each object or image requiring extensive handling before
becoming a true living archive available to the public. The next most important step for the collection is to partner
with an established institutional home that shares Kennerly’s objective of making his documentary images available
to the public for research and education. Several major institutions and universities have expressed an interesting in
acquiring some or all of the Kennerly collection. However, just as the Kennerlys have been so careful to protect and
process the collection to maximize its educational potential, so too must they be careful to ensure that the collection
finds its way to a home that shares that mission. The next step for the collection is to create a comprehensive inventory
and assessment of its contents. This will help provide a foundation for formal discussions around acquisition and
providing access to the public.
Once installed in its new institutional home or homes, the Kennerly collection
will continue its journey to become a true living archive. A three to five-year
endowment will provide the infrastructure and resources to transform the
collection into a fully accessible, annotated and dynamic archive. Images would
be edited, with key collections selected for full-scale annotation and then
catalogued into a searchable database that is made available to the public for
research and enjoyment. Physical materials such as letters, prints and rare objects
collected throughout Kennerly’s 50-year career would be digitized, annotated
and also catalogued so that a digital link could be made between these objects
and their corresponding photographic images. Audio and/or video recordings
would be created of Kennerly relaying his personal recollections about the
events that he documented. As archive components are created, additional
educational opportunities will become possible such exhibitions, videos, and
lecture series with Kennerly interviewing subjects of his images about the world
events that he documented with his photos.

NEXT STEPS - INVENTORY & ASSESSMENT
[CURRENTLY FUNDRAISING FOR THIS PHASE]
In order to formally consider acquiring the collection, institutions have asked for an INVENTORY & ASSESSMENT of
its contents. Information gathered from this process will enable a future home for the collection to assess its ability to
accept a collection of this size and what will be needed to further process its material through each stage of becoming
a living archive. With more than a million objects and images, this process will require a small staff, larger work space
and professional expertise. This step is often done in collaboration with an institution that has interest in acquiring
the collection to ensure that all questions, from the scope of the collection’s contents to mechanics of acquisition are
addressed and resolved.
17
HELP MAKE HISTORY
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Kennerly has created two limited edition portfolios to
help support his effort to secure a home for this collection
where it can shed light on fifty years of history for future
generations of learners.
Each portfolio is presented in an archival handcrafted
box that also contains a special description of the
portfolio that is written by Kennerly. The portfolio title and
photographer’s signature is embossed on the front of each
box. Photographs are printed on archival double weight
Hahnemuhle paper and personally signed and numbered
on the front and the back by Kennerly. In addition, each
print has its edition number, name of the portfolio, and
description of the individual image laser-printed on the
back.
Portfolios are available for $20,000. 100% of the proceeds
received from the purchase of these portfolios will be
used to advance the Archive Project. Choose one or both
portfolios to help ensure that this extraordinary collection
fulfils its educational mission for generations to come.
18
THE PULITZER PORTFOLIO
Never before published together or offered as a complete
set of fine art prints, this limited edition portfolio includes
the eleven photos created by David Hume Kennerly
throughout 1971 that comprised his 1972 Pulitzer-Prize
winning portfolio. For decades, Kennerly was unable to
access the negatives for all of these images. In fact, he
didn’t learn until after a trip to the Columbia University
campus in the 1980s, exactly which images were in the
submission. This portfolio is contains eleven 16”x20” prints
in an edition of fifty and also includes Kennerly’s, “A Pulitzer
Story,” his personal Pulitzer recollections and observations.
THE ARCHIVE PORTFOLIO
Twenty-five 11”x14” archival prints in an edition of twentyfive. Half of these prints are among his most familiar and
actively collected: Five Presidents at the Nixon Library
dedication, behind-the-scenes in Austin on election night
2000, Betty Ford on the Cabinet Room table, the proof
sheet of Nixon’s farewell, and an intimate moment with the
Obamas on Inauguration Night 2009. The other half of
the portfolio are prints that were recently rediscovered or
retrieved as a result of work done on this project, including
Hillary Clinton dwarfed by the shadow of her husband
shortly after his admission of impropriety, the Coconut
Monk in Vietnam, life-sized potatoes in Driggs, Idaho, and
geese reflected in the Vietnam memorial in Washington DC.
