Remembering Pearl Harbor Day Via Library Of Congress Photo Collection
December 7 is a day of remembrance. Actor George Takai remembers that he was four years old at that time, and went from being a native-born American Citizen to an “enemy alien” literally overnight. He and his family spent the next four years in a prison camp.
The Library of Congress has several collections of photographs from that era, some made by Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, and William Dewey. Click here to see the images.
