  content: His right hand crippled from a wound suffered during the Civil War and seeking a new career, Henry Hamilton Bennett bought a photographic studio in his hometown of Kilbourn, Wisconsin (later renamed Wisconsin Dells). He built most of his own equipment, from his camera to a stereograph-mounting machine. Ever the inventor, he developed an instantaneous shutter that allowed him to stop action and built a solar printing house on iron rollers, now at the Smithsonian Institution, that could be rotated 280 degrees so that the printing racks could face the sun all day. With his first and second wives and five children, he ran the Bennett Studio from 1865 until 1908. That studio is still run by his descendents today. Summing up his career, Bennett wrote that his "energies for near a lifetime have been used almost entirely to win such prominence as [he] could in outdoor photography." He was renowned as a landscape photographer who presented the Wisconsin Dells, now a major resort area, as a safe though untamed wilderness. In his zeal to represent his beloved landscape, Bennett was said to have engaged in a bit of deceit, such as whitewashing the interiors of caves to make their interiors visible on early glass plate negatives.
