In 1875, W.S. "Dad" Lively, a McMinnville native, began his
photographic career. His studio was located on the 2nd floor in
the Lively Building on Main Street. In 1904, on this spot, Lively
opened the Southern School of Photography which closed in
1928. It was one of the first of its kind in the U.S. His fame for
the construction of a large camera producing 30" x 60" glass
negatives led to his photographs being placed in the permanent
collection of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.
College and Donnell Streets, McMinnville, Warren County Tennessee
