[Harold V. "Pete" Hart (b. 1898) graduated in 1922 from Syracuse University with a B.S. in forestry and worked forty years as an industrial forester for St. Regis Paper Co., primarily in the Province of Quebec, Canada, until his retirement in 1964. In 1976 Hart reminisced about his life and work experiences in an oral history interview conducted by Elwood R. Maunder, executive vice president of the Forest History Society; a final transcript of the interview resides in the Society's archives. This image is one of a small collection of approximately seventy images that were apparently donated to the Society to supplement the interview.]
