Jay or the Professor to almost all who knew him, was a professional photographer, publisher, and entrepreneur from Minnesota who played a major role in documenting through photographs the settlement and early history of the great Northwest. He became both the official photographer of the Northern Pacific Railway and of Yellowstone National Park as well as operating early transportation concessions in the park. His photographs were widely published in articles, journals, and books, and turned into stereogrpahs and postcards in the late 19th and early 20th century. Jack, like his father, was a photographer, and inherited the family business and continued as the official Yellowstone National Park photographer until his death in 1962. In 1921, when Frank died, Jack also inherited the physical studio outside of Yellowstone National Park and Frank’s archive of YNP photo negatives.
