Felicia Cronin Archive

We’re delighted to announce custodianship of the archive of Felicia Cronin. We came to know Felicia as an executrix of the estate of Elisabeth Buchmeyer-Lewis (whose archive was accessioned to our Collection in 2022), and only discovered recently that she is also a photographer.
