Renowned local photographer and photojournalist Melvin Grier began donating his papers and photographs to the Archives and Rare Books Library earlier this year and we are excited to announce that an initial online finding aid has been published for the Melvin Grier papers.

 Materials received thus far include photographic negatives, newspaper articles, reporter’s notebooks, correspondence, and large format photographic prints documenting Melvin Grier’s career as a photojournalist from 1982 to 2017.
