All Things Considered, October 31, 2007 · The Smithsonian is tackling one of the biggest mysteries in the history of photography — whether color photography was first invented by an American minister from Westkill, N.Y. His contemporaries called his work a fraud, but a new
analysis suggests that the story is not that simple.


It would be interesting to find another source for the story, the NPR report linked above is pretty thin soup.
