Hello Destinee.
You may want to consider someone who was involved with the recently
published, "People of the Big Voice: Photographs of Ho-Chunk Families by
Charles Van Schaick, 1879-1942." You can learn more about it here:

Subject: Speaker Suggestions??
Dear History Peeps:
I am a bit behind on getting together our site's annual Summer Speaker
Series, and was wondering if any of you might have any suggestions for
speakers on the following topics:
(1) Using Maps as historical sources
(2) Oral histories as historical source
(3) Photos as historical sources
The "theme" of this year's series is "Non-Traditional Historical Sources"
(i.e. not books and other written materials) and how they have helped shaped
our understanding of history--Wisconsin history, if possible, but not
absolutely necessary.
Prefereably, I'd like to find speakers who have used these various materials
as a basis of their particular research, and they would present on how it
informed their research.
That doesn't mean their work has to have used such sources exclusively.
There will be small honorariums offered to help offset expenses of time and
travel.
Thanks for any ideas you might have!
Regards,
Destinee K. Udelhoven
