Addison Scurlock Residence

 

1202 T Street, N.W.
Washington, DC 

 

 

Addison Scurlock (1883-1964) was a top photographer of his time with a studio on the corner of Ninth and U Streets, and a reputation for being the photographer of the black "elite".  His sons took over the business in the mid-1900s, and after his son Robert died in 1994, the Smithsonian purchased the family's collection of nearly a century of photographs and portraits.
