Nat Dallinger (1911—2006) was an integral part of this celebrity culture and one of its foremost documentarians from the 1930s until his retirement in 1971. Initially a studio photographer, he later worked for the Los Angeles bureau of The New York Times and for King Features Syndicate. His close relationships with the Hollywood establishment gave him privileged access to the most sought-after celebrities, who were captured by his lens at home, at work and at play. The Nat Dallinger photographs span the years 1935-1982 (bulk 1943-1971) and encompass 97 linear feet. The collection consists of approximately 65,880 items, which include negatives, transparencies, and photographic prints; 1,230 newspaper tear sheets from weekly columns featuring Dallinger's photographs; and some 6,000 index cards listing those photographed.
