Photographer Stacy Renee Morrison’s “The Girl of My Dreams” Explores the Life of DeWolf Family Member Sylvia DeWolf Ostrander

Sunday, September 26, 2010

2 P.M.

Stacy Renee Morrison, a New York City Photographer, stumbles across a 19th century trunk abandoned in the garbage that belonged to Sylvia DeWolf Ostrander, a Bristol, Rhode Island native. Sylvia, born in 1841, was a member of the well known DeWolf family that occupied Linden Place for 177 years. Compelled by the objects Sylvia left behind, Stacy goes on to research her life and attempts to bring her back through photography. Morrison will present some of her photographs, and the twists and turns of her research on Sylvia, during a presentation in the Linden Place Ballroom on Sunday, September 26 at 2 PM.

Admission to this event is free and open to the public. In conjunction with this lecture and the celebration of the mansion’s 200th birthday, the Linden Place Museum will be open for free guided tours from 12pm – 2pm. Guests are encouraged to visit the 1810 museum prior to attending the lecture. Refreshments will be served.

This fall I was commissioned by the Rhode Island Historical Society to photograph the John Brown House for a new book they are publishing. This project was very exciting for me because they wanted imagery inspired from The Girl of My Dreams. I was called upon to photograph "Abigail Brown" in her extraordinarily beautiful home. The following is a selection of photographs from the shoot.
