Abstract
This thesis project documents the curatorial and archival work completed using the collection of photographs, negatives, and ephemeral materials of John Ranard. This collection belongs to his estate and is currently housed at the University of Louisville. Mounting an exhibit, processing the collection, and constructing a finding aid were parts of this project. Approaching the materials with a curatorial mindset informed the arrangement of the collection, one that compliments potential future curatorial endeavors with the collection.
