J. C. Strauss Portrait Collection

The collection consists of approximately 250 studio portrait photographs of St. Louisans prominent in government, business and industry, and professions, taken by J. C. (Julius Caesar) Strauss. All the portrait subjects were dead before the collection was presented to St. Louis Public Library on March 26, 1912. There are nine portfolios of portraits and one box of questionnaires in the collection.

Biographical questionnaires, completed by family members and associates of the subjects, are available for approximately half of the collection. They are indicated by an asterisk * after the name. The questionnaires ask for information on place and date of birth, names and birth places for father, mother, spouse, and children, avocation, government/military service, honors, date and place of death, and incidents of historical interest.

The full name of the subject and his birth and death dates, when available, are provided.

The Strauss Portrait Collection is located in Rare Books & Special Collections at Central Library.
