For more than 40 years, Crombie (1914-1999) championed the photographs as the primary means for understanding Sullivan's work. In a collaborative effort, he and Plank (U. of Virginia) prepared an exhibit in 1991; and then, although Crombie felt that the photographs speak more than words could ever convey, Plank undertook investigation of the photographers and the provenance of the photographs, as well as preparation of interpretive text.
