Community Center Exhibits Vintage B&W Photos from the Late Suki Hill

"Suki Hill: Vintage Black and White Photography of the 1960s" looks to build on photographer's local legacy.

Abby Hill is in the midst of one heck of an organizational undertaking.

During what little free time she has from her full-time job as a horse trainer and farrier, the daughter of the late Mill Valley photographer Suki Hill is holed up in her mom’s Edgewood Ave. home pouring through “hundreds of thousands” of Suki’s photos, cataloging and digitizing as she goes.

The archive spans from Suki Hill’s European travels in her early 20s, through her front row seat for the peak of the explosion of the San Francisco music scene in the late 1960s and all the way to the weeks and months prior to her passing, when she did a series of heartfelt photo essays on the workers who are the backbone of Mill Valley.
