Biographical History
One of the best known commercial landscape photographers in the era between the turn of the century and the First World War, Fred Kiser grew up on Columbia Beach, on the Columbia River opposite Beacon Rock. He and his brother, Oscar, operated a photo studio called Kiser Bros. until Oscar's death in 1905. In 1915, Fred sold his business, in order to devote more time to photographing the new Columbia River Highway. In 1922, Kiser opened a motion picture studio.
