Hugh Morton

Hugh Morton

Hugh Morton (February 19 1921—June 1 2006) was a photographer and nature conservationist who developed Grandfather Mountain in North Carolina.

Morton was well-known in North Carolina as a fan of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill sports and friend of many influential North Carolinians who was able to capture pictures of them in casual settings. Morton authored two books of his photography: "Hugh Morton's North Carolina" (University of North Carolina Press, 2003) and "Hugh Morton: North Carolina Photographer" (to be published in the fall of 2006).

Morton's photographic life's work has been donated to [http://www.lib.unc.edu/ncc/photos.html North Carolina Collection Photographic Archives] in [http://www.lib.unc.edu/wilson/ Wilson Library] at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. This collection is currently being digitized, a project which is being chronicled on the [http://www.lib.unc.edu/blogs/morton/ A View To Hugh] blog.
