Personal Papers","A group of these photoprints have been arranged in\n               sub-series to correspond with the arrangement devised by\n               Durant to organize his images. This arrangement was\n               derived from notations on the envelopes housing\n               negatives. Most of Durant's negatives were filed in\n               envelopes having a numeric series designation and a\n               subject.

His mother was a native\n         of Williamsburg who moved with her husband to New York and\n         worked as a domestic servant for a family. After the death of\n         her husband, who was originally from the West Indies, Bessie\n         Durant and her children re-located to Williamsburg, Virginia\n         in 1929.","At age 36, Durant married Elsie Lucille Ferguson on August\n         18, 1956. They raised three sons, Albert W. Durant, Jr., Byron\n         Murphy, and Roderick Ferguson and two daughters, Yvette Durant\n         and Deanna Ferguson.","Albert Durant ran his own chauffeuring and limousine\n         business in the Williamsburg area, providing services to many\n         distinguished visitors to the city, including the Queen Mother\n         of England, the Prince of Japan, and various chief justices.\n         He often took his customers on excursions to local historic\n         sites, including Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and the\n         James River plantations. Through course work at the College of\n         William and Mary, Durant acquired a background in American\n         history which enabled him to provide historical commentary as\n         he drove customers through the countryside.","Durant's contacts at the College of William and Mary\n         sparked his initial interest in photography and once he had\n         obtained equipment and training, Durant began creating his own\n         historical record of the Williamsburg area. As the first city\n         licensed black photographer in Williamsburg, Durant produced\n         hundreds of portraits documenting the families and activities\n         of African-American residents and also documented significant\n         events, places, and person in and around Williamsburg.","In addition, Albert Durant worked to improve the conditions\n         for African-Americans in Williamsburg by serving in various\n         positions in the city's government. He acted as the first\n         black Justice of the Peace and Bail Commissioner in\n         Williamsburg and served as the first black magistrate of the\n         General District Court from his appointment in 1962 until his\n         retirement in 1975.","Albert Durant died at age 71 on April 14, 1991.","In processing this collection, an effort has been made\n            to preserve the organization Durant used for his\n            photographic materials. Negatives arrived in good order,\n            filed in metal cabinets with index tabs identifying broad\n            subject categories and individual identifications on\n            negative envelopes providing more specific information.\n            This arrangement is recorded in the computerized negative\n            log, which was prepared by taking negatives from the\n            drawers in consecutive order and entering their\n            identifications into the computer.","Photoprints, slides, and oversize prints arrived in\n            boxes in a less discernible order. They have been sorted\n            and filed according to the subject categories Durant used\n            for his negatives. Framed photos were removed from their\n            frames except for those which were fused to the glass. Most\n            photos were also removed from acidic mats, unless the mats\n            were considered to have artifactual significance. In\n            instances where there more than two copies of the same\n            image in a particular format, the two images in the best\n            condition were selected for retention and the others were\n            returned to the donor. Slides, negatives, and prints which\n            were extremely deteriorated were also weeded out of the\n            collection.","The Albert Durant Photography Collection encompasses\n         photoprints, negatives, slides, and personal papers which\n         document the photographic production of Williamsburg's first\n         black city-licensed photographer, Albert Durant. In addition,\n         these materials offer a visual archive of the African-American\n         experience in Williamsburg between the 1930s and 1960s.","African-American family life is documented in both formal\n         and informal family portraits and portraits of infants and\n         children. Family events, such as birthdays, anniversaries,\n         weddings, funerals, and holiday celebrations, are also\n         represented in formal group portraits and candid shots of\n         events taking place.","The collection provides a fascinating glimpse into\n         African-American social life in Williamsburg during the 1940s\n         and 1950s. Durant captures the atmosphere of local jazz and\n         nite clubs through scenes of performers singing and dancing\n         and audiences socializing. Many different taverns and clubs\n         are represented, including Yorkie's Tavern in Lightfoot, Va.,\n         the Hillside Cafe Beer Garden, and various clubs in West Point\n         and Hampton. Entertainers pictured in the images include\n         Grant's Trio, Mell-O-Tones, and the Atomic Swingsters. Since\n         Durant occasionally took trips to New York to meet members of\n         well-known blues and jazz bands, the collection also features\n         a few portraits of such musicians as Count Basie.","Durant also acted as photographer for many African-\n         American clubs and organizations. Along with taking formal\n         group portraits, he documented these groups through informal\n         shots of meetings, dinners, and special events. Many\n         African-American women's clubs dedicated to social reform, as\n         well as women's missionary circles, are documented in these\n         photos. The series of club portraits also encompasses\n         occupational groups, such as hairdresser's clubs and doctor's\n         conventions, as well as garden clubs, musical performance\n         groups, hunting and fishing clubs, and community service\n         groups. Several African-American organizations dedicated to\n         fighting for civil rights are also represented, including the\n         Yorktown Chapter of the National Association for the\n         Advancement of Corlored People.","African-American student life during the late 1940s and\n         early 1950s is also featured in this visual archive. Durant\n         acted as a portrait photographer for Junior-Senior Proms at\n         local black high schools and also documented the sports teams,\n         marching bands, choirs, students, and faculty at Bruton\n         Heights School in Williamsburg. The series of images he\n         categorized as relating to \"School Affairs\" encompasses\n         Homecoming parades and assemblies, football and basketball\n         teams, theater productions, graduation portraits, and group\n         portraits of classes, clubs, and faculty at various high\n         schools. His negative identifications for this series indicate\n         that he photographed students at Frederick Douglas School,\n         James Weldon Johnson School in Yorktown, Charles City School,\n         Bruton Heights School, Mathew Whaley School, and at various\n         schools in Isle of Wight and Charles City counties.","Various clubs and student organizations are featured in\n         images of parades in Williamsburg and Smithfield. Among the\n         parades represented are the College of William and Mary's\n         Homecoming parades, a Shriner parade, and a parade celebrating\n         the 250th Anniversary of Williamsburg. These photos show\n         various floats prepared by such groups as the Puritan Club,\n         the Junior Women's Club, the Smithfield Players, and college\n         glee clubs and fraternities and sororities.","A popular summer recreational area for Williamsburg's\n         African-Americans in the 1940s and 1950s was Log Cabin Beach.\n         Durant took dozens of souvenir portraits of men, women, and\n         children at this beach along James River. The collection\n         includes numerous examples of these souvenir portraits, some\n         of which are still in their original mats with the Log Cabin\n         Beach inscription.","African-American spiritual life is also well-documented by\n         the collection. Durant photographed church groups, such as\n         choirs and missionary circles, as well as individuals\n         participating in rituals, at many different black churches in\n         the Williamsburg area. Included in this collection are\n         negatives and photoprints of members of the congregations of\n         Mt. Gilead Baptist Church in Grove, Va., New Zion Baptist\n         Church in Lightfoot, Va., First Baptist Church in\n         Williamsburg, Va., and several other Baptist churches in the\n         area. A series of photos also captures Baptist ministers\n         performing full-immersion baptisms in a river.","Occupations, working conditions, and business opportunities\n         for African-Americans in Williamsburg are also documented in\n         this collection. The photos show African-Americans working in\n         restaurants, beauty and barber shops, stores, offices, dry\n         cleaners, and gas stations. Since he often picked up customers\n         at the Williamsburg Inn and Williamsburg Lodge, Durant enjoyed\n         photographing other chaffeurs and taxi drivers waiting at the\n         hotels, as well as African-American porters and bell captains\n         who were stationed at the entrances. African-American costumed\n         interpreters at Colonial Williamsburg are also captured in\n         some of his informal portraits.","Durant compiled a photographic record of the white\n         community in Williamsburg in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s as he\n         fulfilled commissions for wedding pictures, school portraits,\n         businesses, nightclubs, organizations, and special events.\n         Since he chauffered many distinguished visitors around\n         Williamsburg, Durant had opportunities to capture the visits\n         of such heads of state as Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain and\n         the Prince of Japan. In addition, Durant photographed various\n         members of John D. Rockefeller, Jr.'s family at Bassett Hall\n         and at various sites around the Historic Area.","Colonial Williamsburg's buildings, employees, and programs\n         are also featured in many photos. As part of his photography\n         business, Durant prepared Christmas photo cards with snow\n         scenes of the Historic Area. In addition, he took a series of\n         color slides which document the filming of \n          The Story of a Patriot, \"\n         the official orientation film still in use at Colonial\n         Williamsburg's Visitor's Center. Durant also took many posed\n         portraits of both white and African-American costumed\n         interpreters who worked in the Historic Area.","Crime, accidents, and disasters in Williamsburg were also\n         recorded on film by Durant, who appers to have provided\n         photographic services to the Police Department. A series of\n         photos provides a graphic visual record of a fire at the Brick\n         House Tavern in the Historic Area. Durant also recorded\n         automobile accidents and police investigations.","Other local events commemorated in Durant's photos include\n         the trial run of the S.S. United States, a ship built by the\n         Newport News Shipyard and Drydock Co. (now known as Newport\n         News Shipbuilding.) This series of photos documents staff on\n         board the ship, as well as the interiors of various rooms and\n         the exterior of the ship. Durant also compiled photographic\n         documentation of the groundbreaking for the Anheuser-Busch\n         plant and of the Bicentennial at Yorktown in 1976.","Although this collection provides little documentation of\n         Durant's personal life, it does include one box of personal\n         papers relating to Durant's limousine business and to his\n         activities as a member of the city government. Some of these\n         papers were removed for preservation purposes from a scrapbook\n         and are retained in their original order in a folder. They\n         include certificates, correspondence, news clippings, and\n         photos documenting Durant's activities as a magistrate, notary\n         public, and chauffeur. Durant's concern about equal\n         opportunities for African-Americans is reflected in news\n         clippings about housing discrimination, as well as a letter\n         from President Johnson's secretary personally thanking Durant\n         for his comments on the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The\n         scrapbook materials also include several letters from\n         satisfied customers who enjoyed Durant's driving and\n         historical commentary.","Contains black and white and color photoprints\n               ranging in size from wallet-sized snapshots to 8 x 10\n               inch prints.","Consists of black \u0026 white and color portraits\n                  of male and female African-Americans. Most of the\n                  prints are carefully posed portraits, although some\n                  of them appear to be candid shots taken of the\n                  subject involved in an activity. A group of male\n                  portraits within this sub-series has been identified\n                  as faculty portraits for the Surry County Training\n                  School. Some of the female portraits appear to have\n                  been taken for a special occasion, such as a prom,\n                  engagement or birthday. A few of the female portraits\n                  date from the very early twentieth century, showing\n                  African-American women in Edwardian attire.","Includes black and white formal portraits of\n                  African American couples and their wedding parties,\n                  as well as photos of the bride and groom, the wedding\n                  party, and guests at the wedding ceremony and\n                  reception.","Contains formal black and white photos of African\n                  American infants and children. These photos range in\n                  size from snapshots to 5x7 and 8x10 inch prints. Most\n                  of the baby pictures are of the infant alone,\n                  although a few also feature the parents. This\n                  sub-series includes formal portraits of siblings and\n                  of parents with their children. In addition, it\n                  features some informal portraits of children playing\n                  or participating in special events, such as birthday\n                  parties. A few of the pictures appear to be of a\n                  kindergarten class graduation ceremony.","Consists of formal black and white portraits of\n                  African American families posing in their homes or\n                  gathered for a special event, such as Christmas.","Includes 5x7 and 8x10 inch black and white photos\n                  of African American couples and groups at formal\n                  dances during the 1950s.","Contains 5x7 and 8x10 inch black and white photos\n                  of African American funerals, as well as of dead\n                  adults and babies in their coffins.","Includes black and white portraits of groups of\n                  individuals participating in the meetings and events\n                  of a wide variety of social, religious, occupational,\n                  and community service clubs for African Americans.\n                  Clubs represented include usher boards at churches,\n                  church choirs, church missionary circles, Park Social\n                  Club, Eastern Stars, Carver Garden Club, Peninsula\n                  Undertakers, Just Us Club, Beautician's Club,\n                  Williamsburg Baseball Team, Elks Club, Ironbound Rd.\n                  Quartet, Barley Corn Quartet, Smithfield Hunt Club,\n                  and the Yorktown Chapter of the NAACP.

Many different taverns and clubs\n         are represented, including Yorkie's Tavern in Lightfoot, Va.,\n         the Hillside Cafe Beer Garden, and various clubs in West Point\n         and Hampton. Entertainers pictured in the images include\n         Grant's Trio, Mell-O-Tones, and the Atomic Swingsters. Since\n         Durant occasionally took trips to New York to meet members of\n         well-known blues and jazz bands, the collection also features\n         a few portraits of such musicians as Count Basie.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eDurant also acted as photographer for many African-\n         American clubs and organizations.

Many\n         African-American women's clubs dedicated to social reform, as\n         well as women's missionary circles, are documented in these\n         photos.

The photos show African-Americans working in\n         restaurants, beauty and barber shops, stores, offices, dry\n         cleaners, and gas stations. Since he often picked up customers\n         at the Williamsburg Inn and Williamsburg Lodge, Durant enjoyed\n         photographing other chaffeurs and taxi drivers waiting at the\n         hotels, as well as African-American porters and bell captains\n         who were stationed at the entrances.

This series of photos documents staff on\n         board the ship, as well as the interiors of various rooms and\n         the exterior of the ship.

In addition,\n         these materials offer a visual archive of the African-American\n         experience in Williamsburg between the 1930s and 1960s.","African-American family life is documented in both formal\n         and informal family portraits and portraits of infants and\n         children. Family events, such as birthdays, anniversaries,\n         weddings, funerals, and holiday celebrations, are also\n         represented in formal group portraits and candid shots of\n         events taking place.","The collection provides a fascinating glimpse into\n         African-American social life in Williamsburg during the 1940s\n         and 1950s. Durant captures the atmosphere of local jazz and\n         nite clubs through scenes of performers singing and dancing\n         and audiences socializing. Many different taverns and clubs\n         are represented, including Yorkie's Tavern in Lightfoot, Va.,\n         the Hillside Cafe Beer Garden, and various clubs in West Point\n         and Hampton. Entertainers pictured in the images include\n         Grant's Trio, Mell-O-Tones, and the Atomic Swingsters. Since\n         Durant occasionally took trips to New York to meet members of\n         well-known blues and jazz bands, the collection also features\n         a few portraits of such musicians as Count Basie.","Durant also acted as photographer for many African-\n         American clubs and organizations. Along with taking formal\n         group portraits, he documented these groups through informal\n         shots of meetings, dinners, and special events. Many\n         African-American women's clubs dedicated to social reform, as\n         well as women's missionary circles, are documented in these\n         photos. The series of club portraits also encompasses\n         occupational groups, such as hairdresser's clubs and doctor's\n         conventions, as well as garden clubs, musical performance\n         groups, hunting and fishing clubs, and community service\n         groups. Several African-American organizations dedicated to\n         fighting for civil rights are also represented, including the\n         Yorktown Chapter of the National Association for the\n         Advancement of Corlored People.","African-American student life during the late 1940s and\n         early 1950s is also featured in this visual archive. Durant\n         acted as a portrait photographer for Junior-Senior Proms at\n         local black high schools and also documented the sports teams,\n         marching bands, choirs, students, and faculty at Bruton\n         Heights School in Williamsburg.

His negative identifications for this series indicate\n         that he photographed students at Frederick Douglas School,\n         James Weldon Johnson School in Yorktown, Charles City School,\n         Bruton Heights School, Mathew Whaley School, and at various\n         schools in Isle of Wight and Charles City counties.","Various clubs and student organizations are featured in\n         images of parades in Williamsburg and Smithfield. Among the\n         parades represented are the College of William and Mary's\n         Homecoming parades, a Shriner parade, and a parade celebrating\n         the 250th Anniversary of Williamsburg. These photos show\n         various floats prepared by such groups as the Puritan Club,\n         the Junior Women's Club, the Smithfield Players, and college\n         glee clubs and fraternities and sororities.","A popular summer recreational area for Williamsburg's\n         African-Americans in the 1940s and 1950s was Log Cabin Beach.\n         Durant took dozens of souvenir portraits of men, women, and\n         children at this beach along James River. The collection\n         includes numerous examples of these souvenir portraits, some\n         of which are still in their original mats with the Log Cabin\n         Beach inscription.","African-American spiritual life is also well-documented by\n         the collection. Durant photographed church groups, such as\n         choirs and missionary circles, as well as individuals\n         participating in rituals, at many different black churches in\n         the Williamsburg area. Included in this collection are\n         negatives and photoprints of members of the congregations of\n         Mt. Gilead Baptist Church in Grove, Va., New Zion Baptist\n         Church in Lightfoot, Va., First Baptist Church in\n         Williamsburg, Va., and several other Baptist churches in the\n         area. A series of photos also captures Baptist ministers\n         performing full-immersion baptisms in a river.","Occupations, working conditions, and business opportunities\n         for African-Americans in Williamsburg are also documented in\n         this collection. The photos show African-Americans working in\n         restaurants, beauty and barber shops, stores, offices, dry\n         cleaners, and gas stations. Since he often picked up customers\n         at the Williamsburg Inn and Williamsburg Lodge, Durant enjoyed\n         photographing other chaffeurs and taxi drivers waiting at the\n         hotels, as well as African-American porters and bell captains\n         who were stationed at the entrances. African-American costumed\n         interpreters at Colonial Williamsburg are also captured in\n         some of his informal portraits.","Durant compiled a photographic record of the white\n         community in Williamsburg in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s as he\n         fulfilled commissions for wedding pictures, school portraits,\n         businesses, nightclubs, organizations, and special events.\n         Since he chauffered many distinguished visitors around\n         Williamsburg, Durant had opportunities to capture the visits\n         of such heads of state as Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain and\n         the Prince of Japan. In addition, Durant photographed various\n         members of John D. Rockefeller, Jr.'s family at Bassett Hall\n         and at various sites around the Historic Area.","Colonial Williamsburg's buildings, employees, and programs\n         are also featured in many photos. As part of his photography\n         business, Durant prepared Christmas photo cards with snow\n         scenes of the Historic Area. In addition, he took a series of\n         color slides which document the filming of \n          The Story of a Patriot, \"\n         the official orientation film still in use at Colonial\n         Williamsburg's Visitor's Center. Durant also took many posed\n         portraits of both white and African-American costumed\n         interpreters who worked in the Historic Area.","Crime, accidents, and disasters in Williamsburg were also\n         recorded on film by Durant, who appers to have provided\n         photographic services to the Police Department. A series of\n         photos provides a graphic visual record of a fire at the Brick\n         House Tavern in the Historic Area. Durant also recorded\n         automobile accidents and police investigations.","Other local events commemorated in Durant's photos include\n         the trial run of the S.S. United States, a ship built by the\n         Newport News Shipyard and Drydock Co. (now known as Newport\n         News Shipbuilding.) This series of photos documents staff on\n         board the ship, as well as the interiors of various rooms and\n         the exterior of the ship. Durant also compiled photographic\n         documentation of the groundbreaking for the Anheuser-Busch\n         plant and of the Bicentennial at Yorktown in 1976.","Although this collection provides little documentation of\n         Durant's personal life, it does include one box of personal\n         papers relating to Durant's limousine business and to his\n         activities as a member of the city government. Some of these\n         papers were removed for preservation purposes from a scrapbook\n         and are retained in their original order in a folder. They\n         include certificates, correspondence, news clippings, and\n         photos documenting Durant's activities as a magistrate, notary\n         public, and chauffeur. Durant's concern about equal\n         opportunities for African-Americans is reflected in news\n         clippings about housing discrimination, as well as a letter\n         from President Johnson's secretary personally thanking Durant\n         for his comments on the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The\n         scrapbook materials also include several letters from\n         satisfied customers who enjoyed Durant's driving and\n         historical commentary.","Contains black and white and color photoprints\n               ranging in size from wallet-sized snapshots to 8 x 10\n               inch prints.","Consists of black \u0026 white and color portraits\n                  of male and female African-Americans.

A group of male\n                  portraits within this sub-series has been identified\n                  as faculty portraits for the Surry County Training\n                  School. Some of the female portraits appear to have\n                  been taken for a special occasion, such as a prom,\n                  engagement or birthday.
