Emile Brunel was the founder of the Brunel School of Photography. In addition to being a photographer, he was a sculptor and dabbled in the movie business. He developed a one hour photography process long before others had even thought of doing this. He made a silent film called “The Hand of God” and later retired in the town of Boiceville, N.Y. His home and farm in the Catskill Mountains, located about 100 miles from New York City, is surrounded by his large sculptures. He died on November 10, 1944 and his ashes are in the top of one of his sculptures. His home is now the Emile Brunel Studio and Sculpture Garden (Totem Indian Trading Post and Museum) and is open to the public.
