John B. Trevor (1878–1956) was an American lawyer and one of the most influential unelected officials active in the Immigration Act of 1924. After World War I, Trevor was a captain in a military intelligence unit in the U.S. Army and was decorated as Chevalier in the French Légion d’Honneur for his assistance to the French Army. A passionate amateur photographer, Trevor discovered Autochrome Lumiere plates in 1907 while vacationing in France. ICP’s collection of Trevor’s autochromes depicts his family, friends and curios he collected from his many vacations aboard. This collection is a brilliant observation of a lifestyle well forgotten but preserved in such a magnificent process.
