The images in this exhibition are from the U. S. Naval Academy's Albert A. Michelson Collection, MS 347. Gift funds generously provided by the Class of 1956 have made possible the arrangement and description of the Albert A. Michelson Collection and the creation of this Albert A. Michelson web exhibition. To learn more about this Naval Academy class, visit the web pages "Then and Now: Class of 1956."

Emily Close Hubbard, Project Archivist, wrote the text and selected the images for this web exhibition. She also devised the overall concept for the site.
