Nebraska figures prominently in the work of Wright Morris, an award-winning novelist, photographer, and essayist born in Central City in 1910. On display in conjunction with Nebraska 150, the state’s sesquicentennial celebration, this exhibition presents a selection of photographs from Sheldon’s collection that exemplifies Morris’s sensitivity in capturing details of rural Nebraska in the 1940s.
