Nearly 24,000 photographs chronicling the lives of pioneer families from the town of Encampment in southern Wyoming have been preserved in the archives of Lora Webb Nichols. This remarkable testimony of a time and place—the early 20th century in the 'Wild West'—has been rescued from oblivion by Nancy Anderson. Set in three different eras and following the lives of three women, this incredible exhibition accompanying the 15th American Film Festival is simultaneously a photo collection, a journalistic report, an archive of letters and diaries, and a historical narrative.
