George Pepperdine College Photography of Hanson A. Williams, Jr.

Owning Institution: Pepperdine University, Special Collections and University Archives

About this Collection

Hanson A. Williams, Jr. was already an accomplished photographer when he attended George Pepperdine College from 1946 to 1950 on a photography scholarship. Williams worked as a student photographer throughout his time at Pepperdine, taking many of the photographs for the Pepperdine Yearbook, and serving as its editor-in-chief during his senior year.

Most of the photographs in this collection were taken during Williams’s student years. Upon graduation, he was drafted into service for the Korean War, and his photographs of his service can be viewed in the the Korean War Photography of Hanson A. Williams, Jr. digital collection. This collection also includes some Pepperdine photographs that Williams took following his service.

All images derive from the Hanson A. Williams, Jr. Collection of Photographs and Negatives, which was generously donated to Pepperdine University by his widow, Talma (Tommie) Williams.
