EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts Professor W.H. Hannum, who served as the Treasurer of Livingstone College in Salisbury, North Carolina, USA, in the early 1900s. The image, captured in New York City, likely at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, showcases Hannum in a formal attire, donning a dark suit, crisp white shirt, and a stylish moustache. His serious expression and piercing gaze convey a sense of authority and dedication to his role as a financial steward of the institution. Livingstone College, founded in 1879, was an historically black institution that aimed to provide quality education to African American students. Hannum's presence as a leader within the college community underscores the significant role of African Americans in the education sector during this era. Additionally, his religious attire and the Christian symbolism present in the background suggest that Hannum was an active member of the college's religious community. The photograph, though unsigned, is an essential piece of history that highlights the achievements and contributions of African Americans in various professions during the 20th century. This image, preserved in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the New York Public Library, serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and cultural significance of African Americans in the United States.
