Inside a warehouse at 6901 Mt. Herman Road. The 10,816 square-foot structure was built in 1972 and obtained by RDU in 1990. It's served Six Forks since October 2005 and presently houses a 12-hour unit. Two boats and a light trailer are also parked inside. We're told there's talk of a nearby Lumley Road lot being donated for a permanent EMS facility. The land would be free, but a building would have to be built.

This month Mike finished a research project of reading (or skimming) each day's newspaper between January 1, 1867 and December 31, 1912. Merely 16,801 days worth of newspapers including the Daily News, Daily Sentinel, Daily Standard, Daily Telegram, News & Observer, Observer, Raleigh News, Raleigh Times, and Weekly Standard. The papers were read on microfilm at Olivia Raney Local History Library (ORL) and usually on Monday and Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings. It was more skimming than reading, really, with only the local news sections studied carefully. And even then it was watching for the larger headlines and more obvious news items. The keywords, of course, were "fire" and "fire department" and "firemen." And with so much railroad activity at the time, there were plenty of false positives on the last one. Each year took between two and four hours to browse. (Though only two or sometimes three hours of browsing was possible at a single sitting. Eye strain.) The fewer articles to copy, the faster the browsing. Some 1,850 articles were scanned and subsequently printed at Kinkos. (The process of scanning and printing actually involved scanning the article as a JPEG image, saving the JPEG file to a flash drive, taking the flash drive home, copying the JPEG files to a computer, generating a Word document with the JPEG images displayed one per page, generating a PDF version of the Word document to submit to Kinkos, submitting the PDF document on the Kinkos site, picking up the printed pages at Kinkos, writing the date and newspaper name on each page, incorporating any notable facts from each page into the RFD history web pages, and merging each page with whatever article pages Mike already had.) The project was started after consuming a collection of newly donated research materials at ORL. These were the notes and papers of the great Wake County historian Elizabeth Reid Murray. They included boxes, plural, of Raleigh Fire Department information. Mike had volumes of information himself, but Ms. Murray's files had dozens and dozens of new dates and facts and references. And particularly about the hand- and horse-drawn era. See, for a couple years, Mike had been working on a "mini book" about the volunteer era of the Raleigh Fire Department. It covered 1880 to 1912, a span chosen at it matched Mike's research materials. He even released the first two chapters. Part 1 was posted to the blog in February 2006 and the Part 2 was posted to the blog in July 2006. Well, the discovery of the Murray Collection put a halt to that project. There was now additional source material to review and compile and incorporate. The new material included a number of newspaper dates, which sent Mike back to the microfilm machines. So, he started skimming articles in the 1880s and 1870s and late 1860s. And he soon found himself browsing entire years. Well, one thing led to another, and he just decided to keep reading. So eight months and 46 years later, he's learned more than he ever expected to learn about the volunteer era of the Raleigh Fire Department. To be continued.

  • Diane Arbus, April 2019
    #39 April 2018 Cameraderie Diane Arbus (1923-1971) Diane Arbus, often call “the photographer of freaks,” is a good follow-up to last month’s piece on Weegee, as she greatly admired his work. But she left a substantial legacy as a significant artist in a deeper sense than Weegee ever penetrated to. She was also a very complicated person, both in her art, and underlying that, in her personality—she was subject to depression, serious illness, and ended her life in suicide. In these brief articles, I don’t generally look deeply at how the photographers’ lives and personalities affected their art, but in this case, the interweaving is, I think, intense and essential. We have to settle why this photographer was so interested in capturing images of “freaks” and what that expressed about her subjects, herself, and the rest of us. Here is the Wikipedia website on Arbus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Arbus, and some quotes from that website. There is quite a story to tell, as evidenced by the length of the Wikipedia article, and its poignant content. Therefore, I am going to tell that story through the extensive use of quotes from the Wikipedia article: Arthur Lubow states, "She was fascinated by people who were visibly creating their own identities—cross-dressers, nudists, sideshow performers, tattooed men, the nouveau riche, the movie-star fans..." Michael Kimmelman writes … "Her memorable work, which she did, on the whole, not for hire but for herself, was all about heart—a ferocious, audacious heart. It transformed the art of photography (Arbus is everywhere, for better and worse, in the work of artists today who make photographs), and it lent a fresh dignity to the forgotten and neglected people in whom she invested so much of herself." Arbus's style is said to be "direct and unadorned, a frontal portrait centered in a square format.

New York City, 1947. © John Broderick icp.org The International Center of Photography Opens New Home with Inaugural Exhibition Lower East Side: Selections from the ICP Collection On View Media Preview RSVP Location January 25– Thurs., January 23 [email protected] 79 Essex Street May 18, 2020 11 AM–1 PM 917.974.0022 New York, NY 10002 NEW YORK, NY (JANUARY 13, 2020) — The International Center of Photography (ICP) will open its new integrated center at Essex Crossing on Manhattan’s Lower East Side with The Lower East Side: Selections from the ICP Collection, one of four inaugural exhibitions. It will be on view at ICP at 79 Essex Street from January 25 to May 18, 2020. The Lower East Side, one of the most densely populated, multiethnic, and modern places in the country, has been mined by photographers for more than 100 years. While late 19th-century social reformers attempted to show “how the other half lives,” later photographers had a different, and often more personal, relationship with the neighborhood. Drawn from ICP’s rich holdings of mid-20th-century works, this exhibition examines the role images play in creating narratives about this first port of entry for generations of immigrants. It features more than 40 prints Meryl Cooper by photographers including Ilse Bing, Arnold Eagle, Otto Hagel, Lisette Model, Jacob Riis, Lee Sievan, Weegee, [email protected] Dan Weiner, and Bill Witt. 917.974.0022 “Many of the social documentarians and street photographers of the 1930s and 1940s were first-generation Americans born on the Lower East Side, who created sensitive and nuanced portraits of their neighbors and @ICP shared environment.
