Ewing Galloway (1881-1953) was an American journalist and photo editor, and ran the Ewing Galloway Agency in New York City.He began his working life as a lawyer in Henderson County, Kentucky, working in his spare time for The Gleaner,a county newspaper. Gradually journalism drew more and more of his interest, and after a journalism course at Columbia University in NewYork he took a series of newspaper jobs that led him to the Midwest, to California, and eventually to Hawaii before he returned home to Kentucky to work again for The Gleaner.    After completing his internship there, he returned to New York where he worked as assistant editor for Literary Digest and freelanced on the side. He became photo editor for Collier's and then worked for Underwood and Underwood.In1920 he opened his own photographic agency on 28th St. in New York. Although he had relatively few photographs at first, he soon expanded his stock and 1925 purchased a collection of 8000 images of Africa and Asia. Galloway established a profitable market niche while pioneering the photographic interpretation of industry, transportation, and commerce. Never the less, the images that survive from the early years of Galloway’s agency preserve striking historical glimpses into everyday life, familiar locations, and means of employment. Though produced for journalistic purposes, their fine qualities of composition and execution suggest that a skilled photographer with an artistic eye was standing behind the lens. Though the men—and perhaps women—who clicked the shutter remain anonymous, we enter easily into what they saw, at the moment they saw it.
