Photograph Library of the American Meteorite Laboratory

We also own and administer the Photograph Library of the American Meteorite Laboratory. The American Meteorite Laboratory, operated for over 30 years by Ms. Schaller’s parents, Glenn I and Margaret A. Huss, was the leading institution in meteorite fieldwork and identification. It was the successor institution to the American Meteorite Museum, operated by meteoritics pioneers H. H. and Addie Nininger, Ms Schaller’s grandparents. The Photograph Library contains thousands of images of meteorites collected and distributed by the Laboratory during its years of operation, as well as the Nininger Collection of photographs from the early years of meteorite research. This lifelong connection to the study of meteorites gives Ms. Schaller a unique ability to assist museums, universities and laboratories in the administration of their specimen collections.
