Abstract
The Negro Actors Guild (NAG) Photograph Collection (190?-198?) constitutes a portion of the organization's archives. The collection documents NAG membership, activities, and facilities, as well as the contributions of African-Americans to various areas of the performing arts. The collection consists of general files maintained on individual performers, stills featuring African-American performers from various motion picture and theatrical productions, and the personal collections and scrapbooks of individual performers. The collection does not depict a number of individuals associated with NAG nor does it document all of the organization's activities. Some photographs are unidentified.
