Description:

Marking the end of the 20th century, Picturing the Century selects 157 photographs from one of the world's largest photographic archives - the vast collections of the National Archives and Records Administration in Washington, DC, regional records facilities, and Presidential libraries. The photographs depict momentous events, illustrate changes in American society, capture the hopes and fears of the America people. At the same time, they demonstrate the role of Government photography in the United States.
