The subject of a portrait by Natchez photographer Earl Norman, Margebelle Stewart visited Hill Memorial Library this week– she and several family members came to view the exhibition now on display, titled: <em>Portraits of a River City: Natchez in Photographs</em>. Stewart’s daughter, Caroline, recognized her mother’s photograph in publicity associated with the exhibition, prompting the family to come to LSU to view the items on display.
