Discover the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum




In August of 2022, I was commissioned by a client to photograph the Truman Gideon bible at the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum in Independence, MO.


The Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum in Independence, MO, is an excellent destination to explore. Although I have lived in Independence, MO, for most of my life, I visited this incredible institution only once during my childhood. As an avid history enthusiast, I cannot understand why I had not returned earlier.


The Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum showcases the impeccable preservation and exhibition of President Harry S. Truman's life. This esteemed establishment acts as a time capsule, providing in-depth insights into American and global history, underscoring the invaluable role played by The National Archives and Records Administration in safeguarding and archiving our history. 


I would like to share some of the other photographs I took that day of this extraordinary place that will hopefully encourage you to visit. Whether you haven't visited in years or have yet to experience it, I wholeheartedly encourage you to plan a visit to The Harry S. Truman Presidential Library & Museum. Prepare for an enlightening and unforgettable encounter with history that will leave a lasting impact.
