Entry Description

Tom Kutchera, former owner of Empire Fish Company and an amateur photographer, took photos of his employees between the 1960s and ‘80s. This visual history of the company – along with research outlining commercial fishing in the region – tell a significant story. It captures the anthropological changes of Milwaukee: its culture, food, religion, and demographics. It also embodies the incredible changes in technology (freezers, transportation, and computers) and the transformation in our relationship to Lake Michigan and the Great Lakes.
