SUMMARY:Closing Reception for "The Wanamaker Collection: A Tribute to Susan Applegate Krouse"
DESCRIPTION:
 A closing reception is set for the special exhibition, 
 "The Wanamaker Collection: A Tribute 
 to Susan Applegate Krouse," on Thursday, April 
 19, from 4-6 p.m.\n
 \n
 This renowned collection 
 of images of Native Americans features more 
 than 8,000 images taken between 1908 and 1923 
 and is recognized as the largest and one 
 of the most noteworthy collections of photographs 
 of Native Americans by a single photographic 
 enterprise in the United States.\n
 \n
 "The 
 Wanamaker Collection" exhibit, featuring 30 
 photographs, is on loan from the Mathers Museum 
 of World Cultures at University of Indiana, 
 Bloomington, Ind., and its exhibition at the 
 MSU Museum is a special tribute to former Adjunct 
 Curator of Anthropology Susan Applegate 
 Krouse (1955-2010). Krouse cataloged the collection 
 while a graduate student at Indiana 
 University; and her work enabled students, faculty, 
 researchers and scholars from around the 
 world to view and research the materials. 
 Her 2007 book, "North American Indians in the 
 Great War," was based on the collection's documents 
 and photographs. Krouse was also associate 
 professor of anthropology in the College 
 of Social Science and director of the American 
 Indian Studies Program at MSU.\n
 \n
 Sponsors 
 for the exhibit at MSU include Provost Kim 
 Wilcox, College of Arts & Letters, Department 
 of Anthropology, and the American Indian Studies 
 Program. The exhibit runs through April 
 22 in the East Ground Floor Gallery.\n\n
