Imogen Cunningham, Pi Phi Pioneering Photographer

The Pi Beta Phi Fellowship Winner for 1909-10

Imogen Cunningham was a pioneer in the field of photography. She was also a charter member of the Washington Alpha Chapter of Pi Beta Phi. Her interest in photography was aided by the opportunity presented by a Pi Beta Phi Fellowship that allowed her to study in Germany.

She also gave birth to three boys with 20 months (yes a set of twins was involved!) and lived to tell the tale.
