DESTINATION

Mcminnville

The town's W.S. “Dad” Lively Southern School of Photography, attended by students from all over the country, operated until it was destroyed by fire in 1929. The school drew considerable attention in the early 1900s for its use of a giant camera that required negative plates 60 inches long and 30 inches wide.

Lively's students need not have gone far to find interesting subjects to photograph. Magnificent scenery abounds at nearby Rock Island State Park.
