David C. Herrin
David C. Herrin, with his wife Margaret, also a photographer, ran a studio in The Dalles from 1892 to 1898. Moving to Portland in 1899, the husband and wife team joined Frank G. Abell to form the Abell - Herrin Co.
Herrin had begun his career earlier. In 1888, the Southern Oregon Transcript reported that "Photographer D. C. Herrin, of Ashland, will open a gallery on Front Street" [in Medford].
In 1893, The Dalles Times Mountaineer wrote, "Mr. D. C. Herrin has a collection of scenic photographs that would command admiration anywhere. The majority of the views are of Columbia river scenes. He also has a very nice collection of portraits of Dalles people"
David Herrin died in about 1903.
