Preparing biographies

Approved biography for Robert Henry Dyball
Courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, USA)

 
  
A draper in Cambridgeshire who somehow became interested in photography, Dyball showed two waxed-paper views in the 1855 exhibition of the Photographic Society in London. He began exhibiting collodion views the following year and by 1859 had established himself as a photographer in London. In 1865 Dyball was cheered by the photographic press for successfully chasing down the thief who had coolly carried his camera out of the studio. He remained a professional photographer until his death.
