The Legacy of Bernice Palmer Ellis

Bernice Palmer Ellis played a vital role in documenting one of the most infamous maritime disasters in history. Using her Kodak Brownie box camera, a birthday gift, she captured the iceberg that caused the Titanic to sink and the rescue of survivors, creating a remarkable visual account of that tragic night.
Ellis’s dedication to preserving the events of that night is evident in her collection of images, which she generously donated to the Smithsonian Archives. Her photographs offer a unique and poignant insight into the disaster. Through her images Ellis ensured that the legacy of the Titanic and its survivors would endure for generations to come.
