Maya Foo, researcher at NPG, discusses a photograph of actor Edwin Booth by Mathew Brady Studio. This 1864 photograph of Edwin Booth and his daughter Edwina was taken by the Mathew Brady Studio and produced as a carte de visite--a sort of trading card and celebrity collectable. The portrait is on view in NPG's "American Origins" exhibition, on the museum's first floor. Recorded at NPG, September 2008.
