Gary Saretzky from the Horizons Speakers Bureau of the New Jersey Council of the ArtsJ Council for the Humanities will present a slide show of 19th century in New Jersey at 7 p.m. on Oct. 1.

Most of the more than 3,000 professional photographers active in the state before 1900 worked in large cities. But some had , studios in smaller towns, including Toms River and Lakewood. This slide lecture will provide an overview of New Jersey photographers during that time period, followed by a discussion of several significant photographers who worked for part of their careers in Ocean County.
