My wife and daughter gave me a photograph for Christmas that they purchased at a First Friday exhibition at the museum. It is of a muskox in the woods at the Large Animal Research Station, and was taken by a “K. Duffy”. Do you have any information on this photographer? I was the manager at LARS for 25 years, which is why they bought it for me. But I don’t recollect when or why these photos would have been taken.
My wife and I are going to buy a photograph of a reindeer at LARS by the same artist for our daughter’s b-day. It would be nice to know who it was that provided us such great memories!
Thanks!
