Description

Portrait of Ebb Whaley at Hotel Le Conte in Greenbrier. He and his wife Cordia were the proprietors of the hotel until 1935. They gave a pioneer water-driven sawmill blade as the second gift, from the Tennessee side, for a museum in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The photographer, Carlos C. Campbell (1892-1978), was a founding member of the Smoky Mountain Hiking Club (est. 1924) and a charter member of the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association (est. 1923). Campbell was an avid hiker and often assisted Jim Thompson with his camera equipment. When Campbell won a folding camera in 1935, he began his own photography journey, taking thousands of photographs and jotting down information about each one in small notebooks. His granddaughter, Rebecca Campbell Arrants, donated this collection of photographs and notebooks from 1934 - 1940 to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
