High Street Photograph Collection, 1972-1975
Description: Several cosmetology students stand on the sidewalk in front of the Ohio State School of Cosmetology, formerly located at 197 South High Street in downtown Columbus, Ohio. The Ohio State School of Cosmetology currently has several locations in Central Ohio, including Canal Winchester, Columbus, and Westerville. Founded in 1958, the Ohio State Barber College teaches students the theory and techniques of professional barbering, including hairstyling, shaving, and facial services. Now known as the Ohio State College of Barber Styling, the school is currently located at 4614 East Broad Street. The High Street Photograph Collection is comprised of over 400 photographs of High Street in Columbus, Ohio, taken in the early 1970s. These photographs were taken primarily at street level and document people and the built environment from the Pontifical College Josephinum on North High Street in Worthington through Clintonville, the University District and Short North, Downtown and South Columbus. The photographs were used in a television photo documentary that aired on WOSU called "High Street." Photographers that were involved in this project were Alfred Clarke, Carol Hibbs Kight, Darrell Muething, Clayton K. Lowe, and Julius Foris, Jr. View on Ohio Memory.
