Harry Holder joined the Society in 1949, just two years after the club was re-formed after World War II, and was a distinguished, influential and much loved member for 59 years until his death in 2008. He personally endowed the annual Harry Holder Lecture for several years and particularly wanted them to be by photographers not normally seen on the club circuit. The Harry Holder Memorial Lecture, as it now is, will be carried on by the Society in memory of a great man who loved photography.
