This collection of mixed subject photographs depict aspects of life at Olive View from a variety of perspectives. Departmental photos include staff in action, capture the first surgery at Olive View, and span several wards from Rehabilitation to Cardiology. These photographs also give glimpses of patients at rest, work, and play, and show several patient and staff events, including recognition, annual homecoming, and holidays. Photographs in this collection were created and/or commissioned by staff, patients, and some by the hospital itself. A few of the folders contain indices and there is a notebook by John Barraba that indexes photographs with numbers that are scattered throughout the collection. Box 54 contains photos of Nelle Regan, the mother of Ronald Regan, who regularly volunteered at the hospital.
